Macy’s Christmas Light Show
December 21, 2024
One of the grandest of Philadelphia traditions returns this year, lighting up the Grand Court of the historic Wanamaker Building – location of America’s first department store. Spanning seven decades, this iconic display features thousands of festive lights accompanied by music from the 110-plus-year-old Wanamaker Organ. After feasting on this seasonal eye-candy, head over to the Macy’s Dickens Village and say “hi” to Santa!
Show Times: 10:30am, 12pm, 2pm, 4pm & 6pm
