Yes, you can get real Christmas trees from big box hardware stores, but the ambiance leaves a little something to be desired. If you want a Christmas tree experience, consider one of the options on this list!

Note: Tree inventories dwindle as we get closer to Christmas. Call ahead for a status report if you’re heading to a farm after the first two weekends in December.

And be sure to view our entire guide to help you find tree farms, light displays, and more! This year we feature new categories: Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and New Years happenings! So visit those sections for holiday-specific events in those categories.

For EVEN MORE festivities around the metroplex, visit our local guides for the Fort Worth and Collin County areas.
