DALLAS (WBAP/KLIF)- The Dallas Arboretum opens the 12 days of Christmas display Friday. Dave Forehand Vice President of the Gardens says it features 12, 30 foot tall glass gazebos, with interactive music and each themed for the 12 days of Christmas.
The gardens will also be open at night Wednesdays-Sundays from 6-9p. They have these special hours so viewers can see the 500,000 twinkle lights and displays. Forehand said set up for this starts as early as September and brings in huge crowds.
He said this brings in a lot of revenue for the gardens, being one of the top holiday attractions in the Metroplex. A unique nativity display will be available the day after Thanksgiving. The Christmas displays will go on until the end of December.
