SUMMARY:Holiday Train 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Holiday Train is a great way to get into the festive spirit. It’s about 1\,000 feet in length with 14 brightly decorated rail cars. Each one is lit with hundreds of thousands of LEDs and holiday designs celebrating the spirit of the giving season.\n12/16 Glenwood at 20 15 Street Northeast (10:15 a.m.)\n12/16 Alexandria at 8 Avenue & Nokomis (11:45 a.m.) \nDepending on the day\, visitors can enjoy free musical performances Lanco and Tiera Kennedy or American Authors and Pynk Beard. Any food or cash donations will also benefit the local community. \nPlease note: You don’t actually get to ride the Holiday Train. It’s more of a pop-up concert experience. Or as the railway says in its FAQ page\, “A typical Holiday Train event goes something like this: The train arrives and pulls to a safe stop in front of the crowd. The stage door lowers and the band opens with its first song\, followed by a brief presentation with the local food bank officials and other dignitaries on stage. Once the presentation is done the band resumes the show\, singing a mix of traditional and modern holiday-themed songs\, and popular original songs. After the final song the boxcar door closes and the train is on its way to the next stop.” \nLearn more about the Holiday Train here
