If they have a warrant for your arrest, I imagine they can arrest wherever they find you.

It depends on a lot of things. how many charges are against you, how severe the charges are, weather the court determines them all to be misdminers or not, and who you get for a judge. The most important thing you have to do is show up. If you skip out, then that's an automatic arrested and you could easily be arrested on site. So if you want to avoid that kind of trouble, then I suggest you do as you're told. Answer any questions truthfully because they can spot lyers easily enough. You may or may not be spending the holidays in jail. It will be decided when you go to court. Just stay calm if at all possible and it should go easier on you.
