Downtown Wooster, OH

Window Wonderland in downtown Wooster, Ohio:  Reflections of the past are seen in all the storefront glass in a town where everything old is new again. Welcome to Wooster, Ohio's wonderful Window Wonderland! The nostalgic evening transcends the historic northeast Ohio town into Christmas scenes from yesteryear. It all begins with The Children's Christmas Tree lighting at 7:00 p.m. in Wooster's public square and a petting zoo featuring Reindeer. Hot cocoa fills the brisk evening air and is free, along with coffee and cookies at several locations. Once the sky is illuminated, Santa arrives from the rooftops. It comes down a firefighter's ladder, where he is met by elves and is escorted to a gazebo where kids gather nearby to tell Santa what they want for Christmas. The air fills with music, street caroling, and strolling musicians. Horse and carriage rides add to the allure of the night, warming everyone up for the featured event - unveiling Window Wonderland.

The diverse cross-section of downtown merchants provides more shopping variety than any mall could in a much more authentic winter wonderland where storefronts transcend into art. Until the unveiling, every storefront along every streetscape is covered in secrecy. Bring your family and enjoy the sights as this event brings new meaning to window shopping.
