Holiday Happenings Right Here In The Greater Binghamton Area

I recently wrote an article about some really cool places to visit in Upstate New York that offer various holiday happenings, like drive-thru and walk-thru holiday light displays, holiday laser light shoes, holiday train rides, villages, and much more that would warrant a fun day all less than 3-hour drives from the Binghamton area.

I particularly love the annual Dickens Christmas that takes over Downtown Skaneateles. Some other Upstate New York holiday festivals that I didn't mention from the Family Adventures In New York State website, include the Gingerbread House Display at the George Eastman House in Rochester, Railroad Museum Themed Train Rides in Medina, and the Ginger Bread Gallery at the Erie Canal Museum in Syracuse to name a few.
