The Dallas Firefighters Museum is kicking off the holiday season with one of its most beloved community traditions – Santa at the Station, a free family event taking place Saturday, Nov. 29, from 10 a.m.- 5 p.m. This annual celebration invites families from across North Texas to step inside the historic fire station, experience the magic of the holidays, and enjoy a special visit with Santa Claus himself. Guests can explore the Museum’s historic and educational exhibits, meet Santa and enjoy a festive day in one of Dallas’ most iconic landmarks. Admission is free and includes Santa visits and complimentary entrance to the Museum, where families can learn about the courageous legacy of Dallas’ firefighters while participating in holiday fun. The Dallas Firefighters Museum – home of the legendary Old Tige, Dallas’ original 1884 steam engine – continues its mission to preserve the rich history of fire service while providing fun, educational programming for families year-round. The Museum is located at 3801 Parry Ave. in Dallas. — Becky Mayad
