Friday & Saturday, Dec. 12–13, 2025 | 6–8 p.m.
Destin–Fort Walton Beach Rigdon Center
The Fort Walton Beach Police Department invites families to step into a festive Winter Wonderland Friday–Saturday, Dec. 12–13, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Destin–Fort Walton Beach Rigdon Center. This annual holiday celebration features kids’ games, movies, raffle prizes, food and beverage trucks, and a lineup of local vendors offering seasonal goodies.
A highlight each year is the one-of-a-kind Christmas village, created entirely from decorated and recycled shipping pallets—a community favorite that grows more creative with every season.
Businesses and organizations interested in building a pallet house or participating as a vendor are encouraged to contact Lt. Stalls at kstalls@fwb.org.
The Destin–Fort Walton Beach Rigdon Center (formerly the Fort Walton Beach Fairgrounds) is located at 1958 Lewis Turner Boulevard.
