It's hot out and definitely doesn't feel like Christmas, but Mall of America in Bloomington is decking the halls early...in July! They're also asking, "what if nutcrackers went to summer camp?"

Now through July 31st MOA will be hosting 'Holly Jolly July' featuring flash sales, giveaways, holiday themed entertainment and of course, decorations. You get all of the best things about the holiday season but minus the snow and cold!

According to the press release, they decided to host Christmas in July because, "we recognize that many people weren't able to celebrate their memorable holiday traditions in 2020 … Holly Jolly July is all about bringing holiday magic to life this summer through special deals that can only be found at Mall of America retailers, live music, events and even showcasing some of our beloved holiday décor."

It might be too hot out to pull out your ugly Christmas sweater, so might we suggest a nice Christmas tank top instead?

They'll have some fun events in the mall's Rotunda and live music on the 'Holly Jolly Summer Stage'.

B&B Theatres inside of the mall will be showing Christmas flicks on Wednesday nights all month long including; "Christmas Vacation", "Elf", "Christmas Story" and "Gremlins".

Each day includes a new flash sale listed on the mall's website. Yesterday's deal was a 40% discount on all jigsaw puzzles from Legacy Toys.

You can check out more information and see each day's deals and events on MOA's website.
