Christmas at the Princess Scottsdale
The Fairmont Scottsdale Princess has been holding “Christmas at the Princess” since 2010. It has quickly become a cherished Phoenix area holiday tradition.
And while 2020 has been a much different year than we had anticipated, we still get Christmas at the Princess!
And there are still so many activities here that will make the holiday season even more special.
Desert Ice Skating Rink
The Desert Ice Skating Rink is a 6,000 square foot skating rink made with real ice!
Princess Express Train Tours
The train takes you around the resort’s beautiful, glittering Lagoon Lights. Special RGB LED bulbs keep changing colors, and there are actually a whopping 256 million color combinations.
