The 54th annual Southern Christmas Show is back!

Guess where we are now? Enjoy The Wood is in Charlotte, North Carolina and we could not be happier! 

• What’s in Charlotte? 

Thanks for asking. The Southern Christmas show is happening from November 11-21 and the theme is “A Sweet Christmas”. Look for a life-sized gingerbread castle at the main entrance. The show features designer rooms, Christmas trees, all kinds of festive décor, holiday food and entertainment, plus more than 400 merchants with gifts for all ages. Whether you like cakes, cookies, toys, or gifts, this one is gotta be your sweetest Christmas show ever.

• Isn’t it a little too early for Christmas? 

Not at all! The holiday season is upon us. Even little kids in Ukraine would know that it is never too early for Christmas (especially when November is already half over) or any party for that matter. When you are happy and you know it, throw a party or go to one, and so we went to Charlotte! :)

• What is the significance of this event? 

The 54th annual Southern Christmas Show is the largest holiday show in North America and part of an important holiday tradition. By shopping at such shows, you are supporting local artisans and small makers while taking in all the amazing festive views, participating in activities and having tons of fun. Igor Fostenko
