ChristmasExpo

Hi Kris - so sorry to hear that you lost the full-body purchase of these items. I know we have a few blowmold folks that attend Christmas Expo but I don't know if they follow us here. A few places I have seen vintage blowmolds for sale have been Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, and Goodwill and Salvation Army stores (but only around the holidays). Hope this helps! Janice

If you missed this fun and informative webinar with Brady, Felicia, Kristen and Santa Chuck, it's available on our YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/user/ChristmasExpoUSA.

Hollywood Behind-the-Scenes | Christmas Expo is hosting a Free Webinar with The Great Christmas Light Fight Thursday, August 6 • 8pm ET Back in 2014, we hosted the first The Great Christmas Light Fight Discussion Panel with contestants from the first show. Every year thereafter, we hosted the previous year's contestants to share their experiences. It's been so much fun to hear what it's like to be part of a reality tv show! Now we are leading the way again to go even farther behind the scenes and find out from Executive Producers, Brady Connell and Felicia Aaron-White and Casting Director, Kristen Moss, about what happens before the first application is sent and the first film crew arrives. We hope you''ll join us and learn where the idea for the TGCLF originated, how a show like this is pitched and produced, what they look for in a contestant, and so much more. Moderated by Planet Christmas' own Chuck Smith, It’s a Hollywood tell-all that most never get to see! Register now at https://www.christmasexpo.com/webinar/.

As most have heard already, Christmas Expo will be held in Biloxi this year. We're excited about the location - the city offers lots of options for family entertainment, history buffs, water sports, beaches, casinos and, now, Christmas Expo! I will be pushing out information as soon as it's available - we are setting up a new registration system which should be open in the next couple of weeks and our class lineup is already looking exciting. I tend to post updates on Facebook first, then send out emails to our mailing list so if you're looking for up to date info, follow us on FB at https://www.facebook.com/ChristmasExpo or visit our website at www.ChristmasExpo.com to sign up for the mailing list. We look forward to seeing everyone at the Expo!
