(GLENDALE, AZ) – Step into the magic of the season at Christmas on the Farm, one of the most dazzling Christmas events in Phoenix. From glowing lights and live music to ice skating and cookie decorating, this immersive holiday celebration at DH Farms transforms the desert into a winter wonderland for the whole family.
A Magical Winter Wonderland in Phoenix
Running November 21 – December 28, 2025, Christmas on the Farm fills the Phoenix Event Complex (2209 N. 99th Ave, Phoenix, AZ) with twinkling lights, interactive fun, and plenty of Christmas cheer.
Explore Santa’s Village
Take a stroll through Santa’s Village, a whimsical walkthrough experience featuring:
- The Reindeer Stables
- Santa’s Toy Factory, where kids can build their own toy or ornament (for a small fee)
- Mrs. Claus’s Kitchen, filled with cookie-decorating and hot cocoa
- Santa’s Castle, where families can meet Santa and snap the perfect Christmas photo
“We wanted to bring the North Pole to Phoenix,” says a DH Farms event organizer. “It’s all about creating that small-town Christmas magic — right here in the desert.”
Every corner of Santa’s Village sparkles with holiday joy — my kids especially loved decorating cookies and spotting the reindeer lights dancing across the barn walls.
Dazzling Lights & High-Tech Holiday Magic
As night falls, the sky comes alive with a computer-choreographed light show set to festive music and projection mapping — with a surprise visit from Santa himself!
You can “paint the night” at the interactive Light Magic Terminals, wander through the Light Maze, or stroll the Trail of Lights for stunning photos.
Other crowd favorites include:
- Gingerbread Village
- The Grouchville Slide
- Tiny Tykes Christmas Shop
