Top 5 Things to Do in the Winter in Hershey PA

We love to go to Hershey no matter what season it is, and each season is special in its own way. Of course, summer is fun because Hersheypark is open, along with the water fun on the Boardwalk. Hershey is special in the fall and Christmas time with decorations and fun at Hersheypark. But what is there to do all winter when Hersheypark is closed? Here are my top 5 things to do in the winter in Hershey PA.

Hockey

It’s hard to believe with as small as Hershey, PA is that there is a hockey team there. The Hershey Bears is an AHL team affiliated with the Washington Capitals. I never thought that we would find ourselves going to watch hockey regularly, but that is what has happened. Go Bears! #DefendTheDen

Believe it or not, Marvel Boy has pressed past some of his hearing sensitivity issues by going to see something that he really enjoys. I remember when we took him to his first hockey game last January. We sat at the back of the bottom section, and Marvel Boy wore his ear protectors. Fast forward to now… He leaves those ear protectors at home and wants to sit down near the boards. It is amazing how he has changed over the last year!

Shows

When Milton Hershey was alive, he did everything he could to give his workers fun things to do without having to go into the city. One of the things he built was the Hershey Theatre. Not only is the Hershey Theatre beautiful inside and outside, it also hosts some really great shows! We have seen a few shows there, and we are amazed at the quality of the shows that come here. Besides the Hershey Theatre, there are also shows at the Giant Center (home of the Hershey Bears). If you are interested in seeing a show this winter, check out what is coming to town on the Hershey Entertainment website.
