Brush off your umbrella and enjoy some hot glühwein in the German-inspired village of the Texas Christkindl Market. As always, this week visitors will have an opportunity to see new musical performances, special activities and events.

Here are some of the highlights not to be missed in The American Dream City:

Visitors can enter to win a $1,000 shopping spree at the indoor Arlington Highlands Warming Hut while enjoying hot cocoa and sweet strudel or creamy spaetzle by the fireplace.
