Please call the Ticket Office (428-9422) to discuss other needs you might have, including the use of a wheelchair.
Is Childcare Available?
Yes. Since younger children sometimes have difficulty sitting through an entire presentation, professional childcare is offered for children through age 4, free of charge.
Also, there will be a special shorter presentation on Sunday afternoon that is especially suited for younger children & their families.
What Is The Children's Tree?
We realize that young children may not enjoy a full length presentation of The Living Christmas Tree, so the Sunday afternoon performance has been designed especially for them. The program is much shorter, incorporating the selections that will most likely be enjoyed by children and eliminating the traditional narration. The atmosphere is very casual where keeping the kids quiet is definitely not required.
How Early Should I Arrive?
Doors will open one hour before each presentation for ticket holders and seating is first come, first serve. Tickets will be honored until 15 minutes prior to each presentation, at which time seating will be open to all.
Why Is It Cold In The Sanctuary?
To offset some of the heat generated by the 13,000 lights used on the tree, the Sanctuary is made cooler than normal during the presentations. Please dress warmly!
Can I take Pictures?
We ask that you refrain from using flash photography during the presentation. A camera flash is very distracting to those around you and also to the performers.
What Is The Easiest Way To Get Out Of The Parking Lot?
When leaving the parking lot after the presentation, please make only right turns onto Governors Drive and St. Clair Avenue. This will speed up the exit process for you and those behind you.
