The highly-anticipated Magic of Christmas in Lewisburg held a successful kick-off to the holiday festivities last weekend on Saturday, Nov. 20, with a packed tree lighting ceremony at the Green Space downtown. Mayor Beverly White gave the opening remarks before the tree was lit, and Cassidy Hicks led the sing-a-long with classic Christmas carols.
The Magic of Christmas in Lewisburg continues through Dec. 24 with extended shopping hours and special giveaways at many downtown merchants, magical Christmas décor, and carriage rides from 2 to 6 p.m. every Saturday starting at the Green Space. Vote for your favorite Christmas window at the Visitor’s Center to be entered to win one of five $100 gift cards to your favorite local shop or restaurant.
The Lewisburg Christmas Parade will run on Saturday, Dec. 4, starting at noon.
