When should we arrive?

The Warner Theater has additional security protocols in place (magnetic scanners and bag checks), so we suggest arriving no more than 30 minutes early. That will also make it easier to find a group of seats together if needed.
How long is it?

The program lasts about 70 minutes.
What is the dress code?

There is no dress code. Overall, people tend to dress up, but we also see people in jeans and matching family pajamas. Do whatever makes it feel most like Christmas for you.
Can we take family photos?

Yes! We try to keep organized lines moving at each of the beautiful Warner Theater trees. We will also have two special, large scale snow globes as photo opportunities. Volunteers will be in place to use your phone or camera so your whole family can be in the picture!
