Avalon Park’s annual holiday event, Avalon Aglow, is almost here!
Avalon Aglow will kick-start the holidays on Saturday, Dec. 10 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., with a variety of family friendly activities such as pictures with Santa, balloon-twisters, bounce park, stilt walkers and caricature artists.
“Avalon Aglow allows families to celebrate the holidays together by creating traditions and memories that they will share for a lifetime,” says Stephanie Lerret, senior vice president of marketing for Avalon Park Group.
Some of the unique components of this event include a “real” snow slide, where families who may not have ever seen snow before get the opportunity to see and play in the cold stuff.
There also will be a variety of local vendors selling apparel, drinkware and handmade jewelry, as well as glow-up toys and more.
“It’s the perfect opportunity for some Christmas gift shopping,” says marketing and events coordinator Marielle Fernandez.
Food vendors include the Wing Box, Mapache Tacos, Kawaii Bubble Tea, Craving Donuts, Thirsty Lemonade and Kelley’s Hot Dogs.
The event, which is free and open to the public, will end with a spectacular fireworks show to round out the night.
But the fun of Christmastime doesn’t stop there! The celebration continues Wednesday, Dec. 14 with Avalon Park’s Holiday Hayrides.
Get the family together and hop on a hayride to check out the premier, master-planned community and its residents’ wonderful holiday decorations.
Hayriders can submit their vote for their favorite decorated front porches at Avalon Park Wesley Chapel’s amenity clubhouse. There will be three winners: first place will receive a $100 gift card, second place will receive a $50 gift card and third place will receive a $25 gift card.
The hayrides will begin at 6 p.m. It is currently sold out, but you can sign up for its waitlist at https://www.eventeny.com/events/holidayhayrides-4196/.
Why families choose Avalon Park
In addition to quality builders and frequent community events, families choose to live in Avalon Park Wesley Chapel because it offers so much more than just another subdivision with homes and amenities.
“We are not just developers — we are building a brand new town,” says Lerret. “We’re bringing together everything a family needs to enjoy life today and in the future.”
Few communities offer the recreational activities found at Avalon Park Wesley Chapel, including two amenity centers with a zero-entry pool, splash pad, spa, and picnic area, as well as a new amenity center being built in the new Westgate Village, in the northwest section of the development.
Avalon Park Wesley Chapel has been welcoming families since 2012, when this community on State Road 54, a few miles east of Interstate 75, began building its first homes. Today, over 2,000 residents enjoy unique amenities, neighborhood schools, and a convenient location with easy access to Tampa, Lakeland and Orlando.
