Christmas Shopping in North Dallas
A Dallas Galleria Christmas
Dallas’ Galleria is always one of the most enjoyable Dallas shopping experiences but imagine the over two hundred up-scale stores on three levels all decked out in their Christmas finest. Its truly breathtaking! The serious Christmas shopper could easily spend the better part of a day browsing at the remarkably inventive window displays, oooing and ahhhing over the beautiful mall Christmas tree, finding gifts for friends and family, making several trips to the car with armloads of treasures and just breathing in the Christmas atmosphere.
The Dallas Galleria’s anchor stores are giants in their industry: Nordstrom, Macy’s, Saks Fifth Avenue and Banana Republic. The Galleria also offers a beautiful public ice-skating rink, the four-star Westin Galleria Hotel, a multi-story office building complex, 10,000 parking spots (most of them covered) and more than 25 places to appease your thirst or appetite.

The Noel Christmas Store
The Noel Christmas Store may not be Dallas’ only year-round Christmas store, but it is the largest and many say the best. The Noel Christmas Store offers you all the beautiful ornaments, lights and trimmings and the very finest collectables you could ask for whenever your Christmas spirit is in high gear . . . even during one of our sweltering August days (when thinking about Christmas just might cool you down). Trees too! A world-class selection of Barcana artificial trees. Barcana has been the best-known name in quality artificial, fold-up Christmas trees for over 50 years.
This year, for the first time, the Noel Christmas Store has a website and is fully set up for e-commerce. They apologize for not having “everything” on their website but what they do have is a spectacular 65-page spread that makes you want to rush to the store to see what they could possibly have left out.
The Noel Christmas Store has been in business since 1986. At first they were only open during the Christmas holidays but in 1991 they opened their doors year-round and, because business was so good, they moved in 1992 to larger quarters on the southwest corner of Preston Road and I-635 (LBJ Expressway)and just 3-miles east of Dallas’ famous Galleria Shopping Center. All that time, the Noel Christmas Store has been a family owned and operated business and has hired only Christmas specialists to assist their customers.
