A Sweetly Sleepy Celebration

Nov. 19, 2022

Glen Arbor is the place to be this weekend…so long as you don’t want to get out of your pajamas. The little lake town knows how to celebrate the holidays in comfy and quirky style, beginning with the PJ Party “Better than Black Friday” shopping extravaganza from 6am to 9am on Friday, Nov. 25. Yes, that’s early, but you needn’t change out of your sweats before shopping the deals at your favorite local merchants. That way, you’ll already be in costume for the Bed Parade at 9am in downtown, where festive mattresses roll down Western Avenue. (Really, who needs floats when you can decorate beds?) If you must, you can put on real clothes before returning downtown for the annual tree lighting and sing-a-long at Glen Arbor Town Hall at 6:15pm. A holiday marketplace (free admission!) with artisanal goods follows at the hall from 6:30-8:30pm, so you can finish all your holiday shopping in one fell swoop.
