Stamford Holiday Stroll Is A Festive Event For All

Ornaments, gingerbread houses, and sparkling lights are covering Mill River Park in Stamford this holiday season thanks to Stamford’s Holiday Stroll. The stroll is a interactive and a beautiful way to get into the Christmas spirit for all ages.

The Holiday Stroll goes from November 18 to December 24. Tickets can be purchased at the door, but it is encouraged to purchase them online by going here. Tickets are $20 per person.

I went to the Holiday Stroll with my fiancé this past weekend, and it was the perfect way to get into the Christmas spirit. As mentioned earlier, Mill River Park was lit up so beautifully, and had displays of reindeer, ornaments, and of course, Santa Claus himself makes an appearance. There were so many spots that made me stop and ask my fiancé to take photos, to which he happily obliged.

In addition to the beautiful lights, the Holiday Stroll also has a little fair at the end of the trail, which offers confections and rides. Nathan’s Hotdogs, and a tent from Blind Rhino which has an indoor bar definitely added to the fun. Between the lights and the rides, the Holiday Stroll is something that has something for everyone at every age. After all, there is nothing like a Christmas carnival to get you into the Christmas spirit.

Overall, the Holiday Stroll in Stamford was definitely worth the trip. That said, there are two things that I would like to advise you of. If you do choose to go is to make sure you get there early enough, because parking can be tricky. My fiancé and I spent about 15 minutes looking for a spot, and we had to park farther away. Thankfully, parking was not terribly expensive, which is always a good thing. In addition, be sure to dress warmly, because it did get chilly walking around.

That said, I definitely enjoyed it, and it made a memorable date night with my fiancé. However, if you’re a single pringle, that doesn’t mean that you can’t go. This event is a great event to go with your friends as well. And, if you have little ones, this is definitely something they would enjoy. But, no matter who you end up go with, this is a great place to create some memories.
