What to Know<\/p>\n
Heritage Square Museum, that Christmassy backdrop of a historical wonderland, rocks a yuletide-inspired aura all year long, even when it is May or June and there isn’t a lick of holly or a single ornament in sight.<\/p>\n
This is due to all of those handsome Victorian buildings, which look as if they emerged from a vintage holiday film fully and festively formed.<\/p>\n
These eye-catching structures are totally real, of course, and definitely not a backdrop, but they will enhance the visual splendor at Yuletide Cinemaland<\/a>, the multi-week movie celebration presented by Street Food Cinema.<\/p>\n From Nov. 29 through Dec. 23 \u2014 not every night, mind you, but a whole bunch of evenings around the weekends \u2014 the film series will spotlight the cozy, cute, and cuddle-up classics of the season.<\/p>\n Those include “Home Alone,” “Elf,” “A Christmas Story,” and cinematic showings featuring the Grinch and Jack Skellington.<\/p>\n “The Santa Clause” will also appear on the spirited schedule, if that’s what you were ho-ho-hoping for.<\/p>\n But Yuletide Cinemaland isn’t simply about watching merry movies by the light of the moon. A pajama party will kick things off Nov. 29, while each night will feature an Ugly Holiday Sweater Contest.<\/p>\n Themed cocktails at the Tinsel Tavern, the picture-ready Twinkling Light Tunnel, and effervescent opportunities to walk through some of the stately homes on the property are part of the sparkling scene.<\/p>\n We may never pass through a screen and enter a Christmas movie, for real, but rocking a snowman sweater while tinseling-out near the gorgeous Victorians of Heritage Square gives us that inner holiday glow.<\/p>\n
