From now through Saturday, Jan. 21, 2017, gather your friends and family and witness a magical display of life-like animals through the windows of the Fox Theatre in downtown Springfield. This longtime tradition has been wowing spectators for years, bringing smiles and joy to all who visit this historical venue.
The event is free and you can see all the animal characters dressed in Christmas attire every night from 4 p.m.-12 a.m. In addition, you’re invited to step inside the theater and check out the numerous Christmas decorations that are sure to fill your heart with holiday cheer.

Aside from the awe-inspiring Christmas décor, you’ll also have the opportunity to take a step back in time and learn about some of the rich history of the “Show Me State” through the museum’s “Mapping Missouri” exhibit. This one-of-a-kind display lets you explore maps from the Missouri state archives, see special maps and more.
This event also runs through Jan. 21. Admission is just $5 for adults and $3 for children. Held Monday through Saturday from 10:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m., this is a great way to have some family fun and learn a thing or two about our beloved state.
