Spirit Christmas Returns for Third Season With 44 Stores, Collectibles and Holiday Displays

Spirit Christmas is returning for its third season with 44 locations across 15 states, expanding the seasonal concept with holiday décor, gifts, collectibles and interactive experiences. The stores will stretch from New England to Florida and west to the Great Lakes. Spirit Christmas describes each location as more than a traditional retail store, with larger-than-life displays, family-friendly activities and thousands of seasonal items spread throughout the space.

One of the main attractions is the Candy Cane Express, which Spirit Christmas says surrounds guests with the sights, sounds and scents of the holiday season. Visitors can then move through Inflatable Land, where Frosty the Snowman appears alongside other familiar holiday characters, including Heat Miser and Snow Miser.

The merchandise mix includes both traditional Christmas items and more unusual seasonal finds. Spirit Christmas says shoppers will find classic and licensed nutcrackers, festive apparel, accessories and home décor, along with stocking stuffers and novelty gifts. Collectibles are also part of the assortment. The company is promoting unique ornaments, seasonal merchandise and gift items designed for activities ranging from tree trimming and family game nights to white elephant exchanges.

The company is also leaning on its experience operating Spirit Halloween. Some Spirit Christmas locations will be transformed from former Halloween spaces into holiday-themed stores, giving returning shoppers a completely different seasonal environment in the same locations.

“The holidays are so much more than what’s under the tree. They’re about the traditions families return to year after year and the magic of creating new ones,” said Kym Sarkos, Executive Vice President of Spirit. “Spirit Christmas was created to celebrate that feeling. From decorating your home and trimming the tree to family game nights and white elephant exchanges, we’re proud to offer a holiday destination where guests can discover new favorites and create memories that become part of their own holiday traditions.”

Spirit Christmas says its assortment includes holiday décor, inflatables, animatronics, gifts, apparel, stocking stuffers and exclusive seasonal merchandise. A full list of store locations and hours is available through Spirit Christmas.
