We can’t wait for another weekend in Champaign-Urbana that is full of holiday cheer and all the things we love about this season
Families can choose from a myriad of events and activities this weekend in Champaign-Urbana
There are a number of holiday events happening this weekend that we are excited about… but if staying home in your pajamas and drinking hot cocoa with your kids all weekend is sounding like the best choice for you, we hope you enjoy that to the max! This is a busy time of year and while we love to share the million wonderful things happening throughout C-U on a daily basis… we also encourage you to always seize the opportunity to have quiet moments with your family whenever you can snag them during the holiday season
You know what the perfect idea for families looking to spend time together without having to change out of their pajamas is? LIGHTS! We’re in the middle of our 12 Nights of Christmas Lights Around Champaign-Urbana and having so much fun! Check out something new-to-you from this list or go visit some old favorites, too. Have a wonderful weekend!
