LAKE HAVASU CITY – If you haven’t been down to Kokomos yet to visit the Twelve Days of Christmas celebrations, you’re still in luck! The annual festivities made a comeback in late November just in time to get you in the right mood for the season. Bring family and friends to enjoy roasting smores, fire pits, food vendors, and writing letters to Santa Claus.

Mrs. Claus will be there too, sharing holiday stories with children. If you look closely, you may run into other famous Christmas characters along the way.  

Stick around and maybe you’ll run into The Grinch from the famous Dr. Seuss holiday favorite, How the Grinch Stole Christmas. The Twelve Days of Christmas began Friday, November 29 but will continue to occur every Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of each week until December 20 from 5 to 8 p.m. at Kokomos.  

Christmas only comes once a year so embrace the season wisely and enjoy this year’s Twelve Days of Christmas!
