What days and hours is the Gift Store open during the holiday season?
I know it’s open during show times, is it open any other time?
Thank you.
Hi Matthew! Amusements will be open during all Nutcracker showtimes, which can be found on our website. The shop opens two hours before each show, and remains open between matinee and evening performances. If you aren’t sticking around to see the show, the easiest time to shop is right when the show starts (and everyone else is inside the theater!). Alternatively, you can shop anytime online.
You have great stuff on this website.
Hmm it looks like your blog had my personal primary comment (it seemed to be really long) well, i speculate I’ll simply just sum it up exactly what I did published in addition to say, I’m completely taking pleasure in your blog.
Just seeing the photos makes me cry and smile at the same time. Growing up, Frederick & Nelson windows and PNB was Christmas magic. It was also a tradition for my late daughter, Elizabeth. From the old concert hall to the new home , from small to monolith size Mouse King, Christmas can’t begin until the PNB curtain goes up. This is expensive magic since I am a journalist in Hawaii. (originally from Bremerton). Thank you for keeping the magic alive. Mele Kalikimaka
