Get into the holiday spirit with a festive afternoon getaway to The Shops at Wiregrass in Wesley Chapel! Enjoy several hours to shop at your own pace, check off those last few names on your Christmas list, browse for a little something for yourself, or simply soak up the sights and sounds of the season.
With a variety of shops, restaurants, and seasonal displays throughout the open-air shopping center, you’ll have plenty of time to explore and enjoy a late lunch or early dinner on your own. As evening approaches, the center comes alive with holiday magic!
Before we head home, we’ll gather for the 6:00 PM Symphony in Lights, a dazzling holiday tradition featuring more than 300,000 twinkling lights choreographed to seasonal music, complete with a little Florida “snow” to make the evening feel extra festive.
We’ll take care of the driving, so you can simply relax and enjoy an afternoon filled with shopping, dining, Christmas lights, and holiday cheer! Comfortable walking shoes are recommended, as this trip involves moderate walking throughout the outdoor shopping center. Dining and personal purchases are on your own.
