Tis’ the season in the city of Beverly Hills
Many people who occasionally visit Beverly Hills are not aware of the holiday spirit that floats around during the month of December. Throughout all of December, thousands of Swarovski crystals illuminate and sparkle on the famous Rodeo Drive. Aside from the sparkling crystals, a helix-shaped sculpture that contains LED lights and electronic “ticker tape” will be used for people to tweet or text their holiday messages. By sending their personal text messages and tweets, hundreds of people walking past the helix can enjoy the holiday messages that are being sent from any mobile device (Tweet #letitsparkle, or text 877877 with the word “Sparkle” followed by your holiday greeting). On selected nights in December, snow will float at Two Rodeo Drive and Beverly Canon Gardens from 5-8pm. In addition to sparkle, snow, beautiful holiday lights, carolers, and horse & carriage rides, 65 stores and restaurants throughout the Golden Triangle will stay open late for your dining and shopping needs.
If you decide to take the whole family out for an evening stroll, there are many fun activities for adults and children alike. OVO from Cirque du Soleil Family Day is on December 17th from 10am-1pm at Beverly Canon Garden. This fun-family day will consist of face painting, chalk and balloon artists, and other interactive type of activities for everyone in the family. And if your little ones have yet to visit Santa, he and Mrs. Claus will be present in the Paley Center and Two Rodeo on selected dates. Mr. and Mrs. Claus will be at the Paley Center on December 10th & 17th, and Sundays 11th & 18th. They will also make an appearance at Two Rodeo on Fridays, 9th, 16th, and 23rd.
