Standing an astonishing 95 feet tall with 450,000 dazzling Twinkly LED lights and 10,000 hand-placed ornaments, the massive holiday tree rises directly out of center ice in the center atrium of Galleria Dallas. Throughout the day, the tree bursts into choreographed music and animation shows during the 'Illumination Celebration', captivating skaters on the ice and spectators watching from all four shopping levels. Public skating sessions welcome skaters of all experience levels with on-site skate rentals in toddler through adult sizes, lightweight skate aids for toddlers finding their balance, and spectator railing along the rink perimeter. On select holiday weekends, visitors are treated to the world-famous Grand Tree Lighting Celebrations featuring Olympic figure skaters and Missile Toes, the backflipping pyrotechnic Santa. ## Similar picks in Dallas–Fort Worth - [Dallas Arboretum: Holiday at the Arboretum & The 12 Days of Christmas](https://grassyknees.com/dallas-fort-worth/activities/dallas-arboretum-holiday-at-the-arboretum-and-the-12-days-of-christmas--listing-a47cedc06d0b215779b2068c) — Nov 11 – Jan 3 · 9:00 AM – 10:00 PM · Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden · All ages · From $21.95 · checked Nov 4.
