We are nearing the finish line of this festive season and we know you're helping Santa cross off his list with gifts for your friends and family!

Tis the Season of Sweetness

For sweet treats, you have a variety of options to peruse through. From Wee R Sweetz, River Street Sweets to Kilwins, you can grab something sweetly created for the chocolate lovers, taffy lovers, praline lovers, candied apple lovers and other sugary creations lovers from these Broadway Sweet Shops!

Savor The Festive Flavors

For the savory stocking stuffers, you can pick up a popcorn tin from Sweet South Popcorn Company or grab a bag of uniquely flavored jerky from Beef Jerky Outlet! Or for those that are 21 & over on your list, a mason jar of infused moonshine or a bottle of their award winning Vodka is sure to bring holiday cheer! (Please celebrate responsibly)

Go Big or Go Bigger at It'Sugar

Oh Fudge! We forgot about the fudge!

From freshly made peanut butter to chocolate and walnut to maple nut and cookies and crème, The Fudgery is a perfect place to stop in and get a slice or two (or three.. or four) of the good stuff or shall we say, the good stocking stuff!

Hard To Please? There's A Gift Card For That

Okay, so we covered the sweet, the savory and the delicious category of fudge, so what about those hard to buy for folks on your list? For those, a gift card may be the way to wish a Happy Holiday! A gift certificate to Ben & Jerry's, Sweet Molly's Creamery or Cold Stone Creamery will allow them to pick their favorite flavor and maybe a few mixin's along the way when they visit Broadway!

So whether your last mad (but Merry!) dash is to find something to stock the stockings with or a treat to snack on while heading out on your holiday travels, be sure to swing by and pick up something sweet, something savory and always, something special from Broadway at the Beach!

O Christmas Tree… O Christmas Tree... How Lovely are thy branches at Broadway at the Beach!

Posted in Broadway at the Beach, Featured Posts

So this year, our A Very Broadway Christmas had an unwelcomed guest, Mother Nature. As she brought down the rains on December 1st and became the Grinch of Broadway that day, we had to cancel our 24th Annual Tree Lighting Celebration. Bahumbug!

Even though we had to cancel the show, we did make some misty memories as we were able to light our brand new, spectacular tree! For the official lighting of our tree, click here to view our facebook live!

So… what exactly makes our new tree spectacular? Here's some festive facts:

Height: 46 Feet Tall

Number of branches: 580

There are approximately 14,500 RGB LED Lights.

Music & light show occurs every 30-minutes 4pm – 9pm, with the last show at 9pm daily.

When the synchronized music & light show are not playing the tree goes through a cycle of color changing effects.

This new tree is located in Broadway at the Beach's Center Court between Build A Bear Workshop, The Mole Hole, It'Sugar and Tsunami Surf Shop.

Center Court isn't the only place we have decked the halls at Broadway as there are six areas in your favorite spots with trees ranging from 8' to 14' creating a perfect photo op for you and your family, friends and Christmas crew to snap a pic and make memories this season at Broadway!

Come and experience the holidays at Broadway and when you do, be sure to share your holiday memories with us by using #AVeryBroadwayChristmas when posting!
