It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year and Grand Illuminations is Near!
The Village Shops has transformed into Naples’ very own North Pole in preparation for the highly anticipated Grand Illuminations event! Mark your calendar for Saturday, November 23rd, from 3:00-7:00pm, and prepare for a day filled with twinkling lights, festive fun, and holiday magic.




Speaking of holiday magic, you’ll want to stick around as the sun goes down and Naples’ tallest Christmas tree lights up! This is where you’ll find the man in the bright red suit – Santa Claus! Capture the joy of the season with complimentary photos with Santa throughout the event. There is truly no better backdrop for family and friends to create memories and gather around.




As you stroll through The Village’s beautifully decorated walkways, you’ll feel the holiday spirit around every corner! The joyful sounds of the Dickens Carolers will fill the air, inviting everyone to rock around the Christmas tree while singing along to classic carols. After all, the best way to spread Christmas cheer is by singing loud for all to hear!



This event is the perfect time to make your holiday gift list…and check it twice! Visit your favorite shops to find special gifts for everyone on your list. With everything from clothing, shoes, and jewelry to gifts and home decor, The Village Shops have something for everyone, making it the ultimate holiday shopping destination.



Who said a Florida winter couldn’t include snow in the forecast? Just when you think the night can’t get more magical, an enchanted snow show begins at 6:00pm. Watch as flurries flutter throughout the Naples night sky.
