TYSONS, VA — Families looking for holiday activities in the Tysons and McLean area can visit The Boro on Saturday, Dec. 5, for a free afternoon of seasonal entertainment, games and a visit from Santa Claus.
The Boro's annual holiday celebration returns this year with a "Holly Jolly Candyland" theme, transforming Boro Park into a holiday destination featuring candy-themed attractions, crafts and activities for children and adults.
The event will take place from 12 to 3 p.m. at Boro Park, located at 8350 Broad St. in Tysons. Admission is free and open to the public, although organizers encourage visitors to register in advance.
Among the activities planned for the celebration is a Candyland Inflatable Slide, where visitors of all ages can enjoy a candy-themed attraction.
The Peppermint Playground will feature interactive games, including a candy cane ring toss, while a holiday craft station will offer hands-on activities where participants can create seasonal keepsakes.
The Boro Sweets Shop will feature a candy bar with holiday treats, including options for visitors' four-legged companions.
Other activities will include glitter tattoos, festive giveaways and holiday music throughout the afternoon.
Santa Claus is also expected to make an appearance, giving families an opportunity to take holiday photographs.
Organizers have scheduled Saturday, Dec. 12, from noon to 3 p.m. as the rain date in case weather prevents the Dec. 5 celebration.
If the original event takes place as scheduled, Santa and friends will return Dec. 12 for additional holiday photo opportunities.
The event is free, but advance registration is encouraged through The Boro's Holly Jolly Candyland Eventbrite page.
