Let me start by saying the historic downtown Glendale is not much to see during the day....and just interesting at best during any other time of year. However....in the month of December when they light the downtown area up for "Glendale Glitters" then this locale becomes something to see. Now I must admit I wasn't totally impressed with what I seen...but this is coming from someone who has traveled all over the country and seen many small attractions like this one.
I was surprised that 3 tour buses showed up to visit the attractions here...not to mention all people that seemed to be coming out of the wood work to an event that I think is no more than a small carnival. I do like the fact that the food....music....vendors.....entertainment....and various other activities were all or for the most part 'LOCAL"....that is good for any community. Now it is not an event I will visit again anytime soon....due to the parking issues and lack of more entertainment....and "GLITTER" so to speak.....but for visitors to the town I would highly recommend going in order to support the local community.
Eat, Drink, and Be Merry my Friends!!!!
