League City invites you to start the holiday season with a sweet escape

Some holiday plans deserve more than a few hours on the calendar. Dinner with Clara from The Nutcracker. An afternoon finding gifts in charming local shops. An evening watching the Christmas tree light up before heading back to your hotel.

This season, League City makes it easy to turn those moments into a weekend away. With a waterfront resort, a historic district shaded by sprawling oaks, and holiday celebrations beginning in November, there’s plenty of reason to pack an overnight bag.

A little Nutcracker magic, a whole weekend of memories
For families with a young ballet fan — or anyone who still loves the wonder of The Nutcracker — the Sugar Plum Fairy Gala weekend, November 20-21, offers a particularly sweet start to the season.

Presented by Bay Area Houston Ballet & Theatre at South Shore Harbour Resort, the festivities begin Friday evening with Dinner with Clara & Friends at Paradise Reef Restaurant. Nightgowns are encouraged, making this a good excuse to bring the holiday pajamas and settle in for a festive overnight stay. Guests can also enjoy an early look at the Nutcracker Boutique.
