What an amazing collection. I was so pleasantly surprised. I will definitely go back when they open on black Friday 2022.

This is a great visit to make if you’re in the area! There are different Christmas displays in a 4,000 square foot warehouse. Everything is vintage 1950’s, so it will definitely bring back cherished Christmas memories for people who grew up in the 50’s! This is a kid friendly place. It took us 1 hour to walk through the entire thing. I have this 4 stars because the directions for parking were wonky. We had to go to a distribution center parking lot (5 minutes away from the actual Christmas Center), and then told to drive directly there. There isn’t an actual sign outside the building that says National Christmas Center..it’s some other type of business name, so confusing for those who are there for the first time!

Let me start by saying I loved Jim Morrison’s National Christmas Center. It was a family tradition to go every Christmas Eve. His vision and love of Christmas was infectious and got us ready for the season every time. And the icing on the cake was the walk through Bethlehem to see baby Jesus. The current owners saved Jim’s collection but have not come close to Jim’s magical experience. The collection has been partially installed in a vacant office building where everything must have to be temporary because walls and ceilings are not finished to complete the illusion. Bare drywall and foam core everywhere. At $22 per adult for a lesser experience, I felt it was over priced. Plus there is not enough parking they say at this temporary facility so they had us park ten minutes away and take their shuttle. With only one shuttle, it was an almost 30 minute wait back to the off-site parking lot once we were done. When something is so beloved by so many, you have to do it right and exceed expectations. I really hope things begin to improve and they do a better job focusing on the magic of the customer experience and casting vision for the future. There is great potential. I hope to be able to positively update my review in the future. Note most if not all of the reviews and pictures posted here as of 12/27/21 are of the old National Christmas Center.

I went through earlier this week by myself in about 2 hours...but i was also taking pictures of pretty much everything
Plenty of hotels motels close by. Should have a car service that you can call.
Everything is indoors and wherlchair accessible. They are closing their doors forever the 1sr week of january. Will miss them.
There is a Best Western down the road from there. I stayed a a Best Western in Intercourse, PA. Which is about a seven minute drive from there.
Yes it is closing. I just read it in the AAA magazine. It closes January 7, 2018.
