Festive Fifth

The holiday season is nearly upon us. It's hard to believe, isn't it? Actually, maybe it isn't, given the fact that it's snowing and holiday decorations have been available in stores since August.

Anyway, Fifth Avenue is the place to be this holiday season for all of your shopping, eating and celebrating.

The season kicks off on November 30th, Small Business Saturday. This annual reminder to "shop small" (sponsored by American Express) is a growing holiday tradition, nationwide. Come down to see what Fifth has to offer and stay for our tree lighting event: 6:30 pm at S'Nice (3rd St and Fifth Avenue). There will music by the MS 51 Chorus, Rolie Polie Guacamole and Puppetry Arts, hot chocolate, candy canes and Santa!

Then, we'll be making Fifth Avenue an extra-special place to be for the next 3 Saturdays until Christmas. Stores will stay open until at least 9 pm, carolers will stroll the strip and Santa will be making stops along the avenue in an antique car.

Save the dates and get ready to visit Festive Fifth this holiday season!
