Happy Holidays! The season is upon us and we love the holiday celebrations in our town. So many concerts, shows, and decorations surround us. It’s looking like a world class city—and we’ve just begun.
As we appreciate what we already have, our heads are turning to what’s ahead. A new 1,500 hundred seat auditorium, the possible and proposed “Tysons Circle” for Route 7 and 123, more luxury living choices, 15 new movie screens coming to Tysons, Bikeshare, new parks and the new and exciting “Boro” under construction. And more dining choices everyday!
We hope you’ll stay tuned for more details on these developments and more. We will do our best to keep you posted. We promise.
Our Holiday Event Guide is packed with options and ideas for friends and family this season. We hope you’ll take some time to discover the craft shows, concerts and other venues.
Our Top Picks for area catering is always a hit with our readers, as is our guide to Restaurant Gift Cards—you can’t go wrong giving the gift of a delightful meal with a loved one or friend.
