Cornelia will flip the switch next week on its free, annual Christmas lights display. Christmas in the Park opens Thanksgiving night, Nov. 23, and will run through the first of the year.
The light display hours are 5 p.m. to midnight nightly, says Cornelia Main Street Manager Noah Hamil.
Visitors to the park can also enjoy an evening of late-night shopping, entertainment, and fun during Christmas in Cornelia, an event you will not want to miss! This festival of fun is set for Saturday, December 9, from 4 p.m. until 9 p.m. There will be something for everyone to put even the most Scrooge-like of all in the spirit of Christmas.
Vendors
Food and Holiday Market Vendors are unmatched this year. Bring your Christmas list and a hungry tummy. The Cornelia Main Street Social Media page will keep you informed and is a great resource for finding out what vendors will be open and what they have to offer. Vendors are available from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m.
The train ride starts at Appletree Alley and will be available to enjoy from 5 to 9 p.m. You can also enjoy the Holiday Lights on the Hayride – loading at the splash pad from 6 to 9 p.m.
Live Music
Live music will play throughout the evening from Fender’s Alley beginning at 5 p.m., with hot cocoa to enjoy starting at 4 p.m.
Highlights
Some highlights to help plan your evening: Photos with Santa, the Grinch, and the Ice Princess, S’mores, Christmas cookies from Sugartopia, hot chocolate at Whistle Top Brew Company, and shopping at Cornelia Florist & Gifts with 30% off items.
Plan to add this night of fun to your calendar! There is something for every member of the family.
