Kathy’s Holiday Activities: Chester County Hospital Lights Up Holiday Weekends
Historic Downtown West Chester
Historic Downtown West Chester transforms into a dazzling wonderland with thousands of twinkling lights during Chester County Hospital Lights Up Holiday Weekends. It’s one of my favorite towns, not only because I’m a WCU graduate, but because of how stunningly beautiful the town is. You can sip, shop, dine and enjoy holiday festivities every weekend through New Year’s. The town has 6 full weekends for you to enjoy with Santa, free outdoor holiday concerts, carolers, a professional gingerbread house competition and much more. Make sure you leave plenty of time for holiday shopping in West Chester’s one-of-a-kind shops and boutiques. On Friday, December 2nd, the West Chester Christmas Parade & Tree Lighting is back! It kicks off at 6:30pm with the official lighting of West Chester’s spectacular 26-foot-tall Christmas Tree on the lawn of the Courthouse. The parade starts at 7pm with the arrival of Santa in the most unique display yet. I spoke to Santa a few days ago and he told me it involves a zipline! After taking a 2-year hiatus due to COVID, this year’s parade will run a little more than an hour.
Dozens of more weekend activities are listed on the Greater West Chester Chamber of Commerce’s website at gwcc.org.
Helpful Hint: My favorite West Chester restaurant is Meatball U and it’s not because my cousin Dan owns the restaurant. It’s because the meatballs are delicious!!! Mention Cousin Kathy Romano for a free dessert with your purchase.
