The holidays have quickly arrived, and if you're not quite feeling the jolliest just yet, a historic venue is hoping to bring joy to the world, or in this case, Cleveland.

On Friday, Tower City kicked off "Holidays at Tower City," illuminating its exterior, concourse, and hallways with festive décor. Tower City is set to host a full line-up of family-friendly events from now through the New Year. The holiday schedule also features unique pop-ups, old traditions and live music.

New to the venue this year, Bruce the Spruce is returning to the concourse. The talking holiday tree is a Cleveland tradition dating back to the 1960s.

On Go! Sunday Morning, 3News reporter Kierra Cotton visited one of the unique pop-up shops: Magical Wonderland Adventure. The business, located in the old Bath and Body Works storefront, offers a festive shopping experience to all guests. It's co-owned by Tondria Suggs who told 3News that she and her sister opened the business, hoping to restore the feeling they had as children visiting Tower City and traveling to see Christmas lights throughout Northeast Ohio.

In its first year, at Magical Wonderland Adventure, you can find holiday gifts and goods—such as ornaments, candles, toys, and puzzles. It's also a place for kids to purchase presents for friends and family.
