Dahlonega’s Old Fashioned Christmas is a month-long celebration held from November 29 through December 22, 2013, set into motion with the Lighting of the Square on Friday the 29th.
A real hometown parade officially bringing Santa to town occurs on December 7th, the first Saturday in the month.
Plenty of other festive holiday events continue almost daily throughout December until after New Year’s with:
- caroling
- entertainment
- wine sampling and
- live theater Christmas events.
The horse-drawn carriage rides and the Christmas handbell choirs are especially wonderful.
