Taylorsville Christmas FAQ
The biggest annual events include the Taylorsville Tree Lighting Ceremony at Centennial Plaza and the community-driven Christmas Street on Royalwood Drive. These events mark the start of the holiday season with music, lights, and festive activities.
A unique tradition in Taylorsville is the long-standing Christmas Street display where neighbors collaboratively recreate the poem 'Twas the Night Before Christmas' with illuminated storyboards and coordinated decorations, creating a neighborhood-wide holiday story experience.
The Royalwood Drive area, known as Christmas Street, is the premier neighborhood for Christmas lights in Taylorsville. Several other residential areas also participate with festive decorations, but Royalwood Drive is the most recognized and accessible for visitors.
Christmas markets and local makers can be found at community centers, seasonal craft fairs, and neighborhood markets throughout Taylorsville. Additionally, nearby Salt Lake Valley markets offer expanded options for artisan goods and holiday shopping.
Free activities include visiting neighborhood light displays like Christmas Street, attending the city’s tree lighting ceremony, and exploring local holiday markets with no admission fees. These provide festive experiences without significant cost.
Families will enjoy walking or driving through Christmas Street to see the storyboards, attending the tree lighting event with hot chocolate and music, and visiting local markets offering kid-friendly crafts and seasonal treats.
