From a press release:
“Enchant Christmas is officially returning to Washington, DC and bringing back the holiday magic that families, friends, and festive spirits have been waiting for.
From November 20 through December 27, Nationals Park will once again transform into a dazzling winter wonderland anchored by the World’s Largest Christmas Light Maze. Guests can expect breathtaking larger-than-life light sculptures, millions of twinkling lights, festive experiences around every corner, and an all-new holiday adventure: Night of the Nutcrackers.
This year’s maze experience invites guests into a world where the Nutcrackers — legendary guardians of Christmas magic — have mysteriously vanished, threatening to dim the spirit of the season itself. Throughout the journey, guests will search for eight missing Nutcrackers hidden throughout the maze, restoring holiday magic along the way through immersive scenes and dazzling light displays. Whether guests choose to follow the adventure or simply wander through the glowing spectacle, the experience is designed to spark wonder for all ages.
“DC has always held a special place in our hearts, and we’ve been eager to return. Bringing Enchant back to Nationals Park gives us the opportunity to reintroduce this tradition to returning guests while creating entirely new memories for families experiencing it for the first time,” said Jayson Babel, Senior Vice President of Social House Holidays.
