CWE Window Walk

December 5, 2020   •   1:00 pm - 5:00 pm
  •   Cost: Free

Experience the magic of the holidays at the Central West End’s annual Window Walk, now in its 11th year.

 

Window Walk is a month-long celebration, with holiday fun each Saturday in December. Visitors are invited to safely stroll amidst elegantly decorated windows, while shopping at boutiques, and enjoying seasonal libations and delicious meals at local restaurants. Visitors can also enjoy FREE socially distanced holiday festivities, including ice carvings, carriage rides, carolers, live music, street performers, a roaming Santa, and more! Stop by the Maryland Plaza Fountain on December 12 to meet a live reindeer! Plus, enjoy a live performance by moSTLy TAP on December 12 and 19 from 1-3 p.m. at Maryland Plaza. Masks are required at all times when in indoor facilities and outside when social distancing is not possible.

 

Window Walk brings back the time-honored tradition of going downtown to see festive windows, while showcasing the CWE’s retail and dining establishments. Local designers partner with select businesses to decorate their windows, and this year’s theme for all designs will be “Family, Friends, and Neighbors” — a special reminder that even though this year’s festivities may look and feel a little bit different, our loved ones (whether near or far) can still bring us joy this holiday season.

Be sure to view the beautifully-decorated windows at these CWE Businesses:

The walk is outdoor and self-guided. No reservations required.
