The weekend is jam-packed with holiday events, performances, and celebrations. Read on to see where DART can take you to ring in the season.

Thursday, Nov. 30

Miracle on 34th Street tells the story of single mother who doesn't want her six-year-old daughter to believe in Santa – but it turns out that the Santa at Macy’s (where she works) just may turn out to be the real deal.  The heartwarming play opens tonight and runs through Dec. 17 at The Firehouse Theatre, walkable from Farmers Branch Station on the Green Line.

A Christmas Carol rejoices in the holiday spirit with spectacular sets, flying ghosts and rousing music.  Dallas Theater Center’s annual crowd-pleaser opens tonight and runs through Dec. 30 at the Wyly Theater, walkable from Pearl/Arts District Station on all four DART Rail lines, or from the M-Line trolley.

Friday, Dec. 1

Pete Davidson was a popular cast member on Saturday Night Live. He now writes and stars in the TV comedy Bupkis. This Friday night, he brings his stand-up act to Dallas. There will be early and late shows at the Majestic Theatre, walkable from St. Paul Station on all four DART Rail lines.

Puffs is a clever and inventive play that takes a familiar story – three potential heroes trying to make it through a magic school – and gives it a twist. The epic story reimagines what a boy wizard hero can be. The play opens tonight at the Granville Arts Center and runs through Dec. 17. The venue is right next to Downtown Garland Station on the Blue Line.

Christmas Pops continues the Dallas Symphony Chorus’ tradition of transcendent anthems, classical holiday favorites and singalong carols. Favorite holiday vocalists join the chorus and the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. Rumor has it Santa might even show up at the Meyerson Symphony Center tonight – and every night through Dec. 10. The venue is walkable from Pearl/Arts District Station on all four DART Rail lines, or from the M-Line trolley.

Friday, Dec. 1- Saturday, Dec. 2
