Downtown Fort Lauderdale closes East Las Olas Boulevard to all vehicle traffic from SE 6th Ave to SE 11th Ave, creating a pedestrian winter carnival with over 60 community booths, food stalls, and holiday installations. Kids flock to the two-story 'Snow Mountain,' where real snow is brought in for sledding runs, alongside an outdoor ice-skating rink, Santa's Village for photos, and four performance stages hosting over 30 local school choirs and dance groups. The flat, wide street is tailor-made for strollers, offering a festive post-Thanksgiving celebration under twinkling canopies of palms. ## Similar picks in Miami - [Delray's 100 ft Christmas Tree Lighting & Yuletide Festival](https://grassyknees.com/miami/activities/delray-s-100-ft-christmas-tree-lighting-and-yuletide-festival--listing-3365aa9f0017370c51b371c7) — Tue, Dec 1 · 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM · Old School Square, Delray Beach · checked Oct 16.
