About this adventure
The City of Peoria hosts its annual Old Town Holiday Festival in and around Johnny E. Osuna Memorial Park. Families flock to this beloved West Valley gathering to experience a real snow play area with sledding hills, stroll through a community gingerbread house contest display, and watch the official lighting of the city's grand Christmas tree. Children can visit with Santa and Mrs. Claus for free photos, participate in hands-on holiday craft workshops, and enjoy carnival games and trackless train rides. Live performances by Peoria youth choirs and bands take place across multiple stages throughout the evening. The festival footprint features paved paths and ramps suitable for strollers.
