East Rutherford, New Jersey, Nov. 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- This year, American Dream continues to reinvent the entertainment, shopping, and dining experience by expanding the Black Friday start of the holiday shopping season from one day to eight and making dreams come true. Working closely with its brand partners and attractions, American Dream’s Wish Week will bring holiday magic to the traditional Thanksgiving season and create new memories for guests.
Beginning November 23 through November 30, guests visiting American Dream will be treated to special surprises, magical giveaways, and one-of-a-kind experiences all week. To provide a safe experience throughout Wish Week, and all season long, American Dream’s #dreamsafe initiative, which launched together with Hackensack Meridian Health, sets the standard in cleanliness and health and safety protocols. The property will ease the common stresses of the season by offering online to offline gifting consultations, curated gift guides, and curbside pickup, among others.
American Dream will have extended hours during Wish Week and all throughout the holiday season. Visit www.americandream.com for its holiday operating hours. American Dream will be closed on Thanksgiving Day, November 26.
“At American Dream, we’re always re-thinking, re-inventing, and putting a fresh spin on conventional experiences,” said Mark Ghermezian, co-CEO of American Dream. “This year, we’re moving away from the traditional one-day Black Friday holiday and expanding to eight magical days, giving families the chance to experience American Dream at a time most convenient for them,” he added.
