Celebrate The Holiday Season With Lights, Skating, And More!

December 6th, 2021 by Cressy & Everett

Looking for fun things to do this December? Check out these festive events for family fun!

With Thanksgiving behind us, we're into the holiday season full-swing now. For the rest of the month and beyond, you'll find lots of exciting wintery and holiday-themed things to do here in South Bend. If you're new to the area or not familiar with the holiday scene, here are a few seasonal activities our real estate agents recommend.

Ice skating at Howard Park
Make it a traditional winter and holiday season by going ice skating in Howard Park, located at 219 South St. Louis Boulevard. Choose between a traditional winter skating experience on the frozen pond, or hit the ice trail a more interesting skating challenge, complete with rolling hills and turns. Skates are available for rent at the park. Ice skating is offered in 90 minute sessions weekday evenings and all day Saturday and Sunday, with a couple of kids-only sessions during the day on Fridays. Check the website for a more complete schedule.
Lights at Fernwood
During the holidays, Fernwood Botanical Gardens celebrates the season by decorating the gardens in holiday lights. See the gardens like you've never seen them before, warm up by the fire pits, and treat yourself to steaming cups of hot cocoa and apple cider as well as a variety of holiday snacks. Timed tickets can be purchased for Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings, from 5 pm until 9 pm. Fernwood is located at 13988 Range Line Road in Niles.
Notre Dame ice hockey games at Compton Family Ice Arena
If you're an ice hockey fan, you won't want to miss the opportunity to see the Fighting Irish up close and personal. Notre Dame's ice hockey team plays all of their home games at the Compton Family Ice Arena, right here near South Bend. Check the hockey schedule to find out when the Fighting Irish will be playing at the Compton.
Home for the Holidays with the South Bend Symphony Orchestra
For something that's rousing in a completely different way, fill your entire family's hearts with joy at the South Bend Symphony Orchestra's "Home for the Holidays." This performance of holiday music will take place at the Morris Performing Arts Center, located at 211 North Michigan Street. You have two options, the evening of Saturday, December 18th and the afternoon of Sunday, December 19th, so you can easily stay and catch a show after visiting South Bend homes for sale with your agent. Tickets range from $19 to $60.
Winter Wonderland Holiday Lights at Wellfield Botanic Gardens
Next time you are in town checking out Elkhart homes for sale, be sure to visit the Wellfield Botanic Gardens to see their Winter Wonderland of Holiday Lights. The gardens have light viewing times Friday through Sunday evenings most weekends in December, and all evenings the last week leading up to Christmas. Be sure to buy tickets online before your visit! Wellfield is located at 1011 North Main Street in Elkhart.

One of the best parts about the holiday season is how the South Bend and Elkhart communities come together, with so many things to do and see. If you're ready to become a part of a community like these, contact us today, and we'll help you begin your search for the perfect home.
