SLEIGHBELLS ON THE AVENUE
swagged-out parlor as he retells Dickens’ legendary tale. The author, it was said, gave each character a different voice and style, so get set for a stern Scrooge and an endearingly high-pitched Tiny Tim. Ages 12 and up; tickets are $45. Arrive at least 15 minutes prior to start time. lyndhurst.org/events/mr-dickens- tells-a-christmas-carol
Nutcracker! Magic of Christmas Ballet The Capitol Theatre, Port Chester
Nov 16
6 p.m.
The Moscow Ballet pirouettes into Westchester with its elaborate 30th anniversary tour, which visits more than 100 cities. You’d expect any troupe with “Moscow” in its name to know its Nutcracker, and this one definitely delivers, with acrobatic yet elegant dancers, resplendent costumes, and impressive sets. Whether you’ve seen this production or not, you’ll be impressed by the newly added flock of white doves. Tickets are $35–$85. thecapitoltheatre.com/events/ venue/the-capitol-theatre/all
CIVIC EVENTS
Armonk Frosty Day
Downtown Armonk
Nov 27, 12 p.m. until early evening
Remember when Frosty said, “I’ll be back again someday”? That’s snowman- speak for “It’s not you; it’s me.” He’s actually more interested in Armonk, where Frosty is returning for the 13th time. The fun starts at noon and includes animated animals, dancers, singers, a stilt band, and more. Merchants around
town will be offering face painting and activities like frosting cookies and decorating holiday ornaments. Stick around for the 4 p.m. Frosty-themed parade, followed by the annual holiday lighting ceremony and a sing-along at the Wampus Brook Park gazebo. Free admission. armonkfrosty.com
Holiday Brictacular
LEGOLAND New York, Goshen
Nov 25–Dec 31
This year, LEGOLAND New York is hosting its first-ever Holiday
Bricktacular event, complete with plenty of family-friendly cheer. Featuring daily tree lightings, the park lets you revel in elaborate, twinkling decor throughout
as you’re serenaded by live carolers. Kids (and their parents) can have meet- and-greets with LEGO Santa or Mrs. Clause. Stop by the LEGOLAND New York creative workshop, which transforms during the holidays into Santa’s postal service, where children can write their own letters to be sent to the North Pole. legoland.com/new-york/things-to-do/seasonal-events/holiday-bricktacular
Sleighbells on the Avenue Downtown Larchmont
Dec 3
12 p.m.–4 p.m.
Board a large, horse-drawn sleigh at either of two central locations in town for a merry ride that’s far more exciting than your average Uber. You may even be serenaded by carolers as you wait. Other attractions include a live Santa in a snow globe, Elsa and Olaf from Frozen, a life-size teddy bear, and trees decorated by local charities. This is a free public event. •
Events are subject to change, so check with the venue directly for the most up-to-date information.
