Celebrate December in Austin: Must-See Holiday Events & Strolls
December in Austin is pure magic. Twinkling lights, live music, festive markets, and cozy strolls make the city glow with holiday spirit. Whether you're visiting family, planning a festive night out, or hosting holiday guests, you deserve to enjoy every moment — without the stress of traffic or parking. That’s where our Austin black car service comes in.
Here are some of the top holiday events and Christmas strolls happening in and around Austin in December 2025:
1. Austin Trail of Lights – Zilker Park
When: December 10–23, 2025
What to Expect:
- A beautifully illuminated 2.5-mile walking trail with over 70 themed displays and more than 2 million lights.
- Entertainment includes live music, Santa’s Workshop, s’mores, and more.
- This is a long-time Austin holiday tradition and one of the most iconic light displays in the city.
Why Use Us:
Instead of hunting for parking at Zilker Park (which can be hectic), ride in style and comfort with our
executive transportation. We’ll drop you off close, so you can start your evening stress-free — and pick you up when you're ready to leave, no walking back through the cold.
2. Downtown Austin Holiday Sing-Along & Tree Lighting
When: December 6, 2025
Where: Congress Avenue, in front of the Texas State Capitol
Highlights:
- Community sing-along with live music.
- Artisan vendors and food trucks to explore.
- The big moment: lighting the giant Capitol Christmas tree at 7 PM.
Why Use Us:
Downtown parking gets insane during this event. Let our
limo service deliver you right to the heart of the celebration. You can walk, enjoy, and then return in broad comfort — no circling or stress required.
3. Georgetown Candyland Christmas Stroll
When: December 5–7, 2025
Where: Historic Downtown Georgetown
What’s Happening:
- Themed “Candyland” stroll: gumdrops, peppermint, and candy-cane decor.
- Over 200 artisan, craft, and boutique vendor booths.
- Saturday’s Candyland Parade starts at 10 AM. Santa’s Village, face painting, “Whoo Hair” makeovers, and family-friendly fun.
Why Ride With Us:
Georgetown is just a short drive from Austin — but navigating during the Stroll weekend can be tricky. Let our
Sprinter van or
SUV service bring your group together, drop you off right in the square, and pick you up once you’ve soaked in the charm and lights.
4. 37th Street Lights – Austin’s Quirkiest Display
When: Nightly after sunset in December 2025 Where: 37th Street Neighborhood, Austin
Why It’s Unique:

- Eclectic displays, quirky themes, and a strong local flavor make it uniquely Austin.
- Note: The street is closed to vehicle traffic during peak viewing times.
Smart Tip:
Since the street is for walking, consider riding close with our
black car service, then walk in. When you're done enjoying the lights, we’ll be ready to pick you up nearby.
5. Oh, What Fun! Austin Holiday Market
When: November 20 – December 24, 2025
Where: Republic Square, Downtown Austin
What to Expect:

executive car service can drop you off for a relaxing, stress-free evening browsing the market, sipping a holiday drink, and getting in that festive mood.
