More than 50 trees decorated by Chicago's cultural communities and a four-story Grand Tree, Nov 7, 2026 – Jan 3, 2027. Included with museum admission.
Christmas Around the World is a Chicago tradition at the Museum of Science and Industry in Hyde Park. More than 50 trees and displays are decorated by community volunteers, each showing the holiday traditions of a different country or culture, with displays for other festivals of light such as Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and Diwali placed among them. In the middle is the museum's four-story Grand Tree.
In 2026 it opened on Saturday, November 7 and runs through Sunday, January 3, 2027. It's included in general admission, so there's no separate ticket.
Because it's indoors, it's the best choice on this list for a freezing or wet day, and you can combine it with the rest of the museum.
