Macy's....you're just too slow!  Why wait to Thanksgiving weekend to get your first taste of Christmas?  Springboro Ohio is firing the opening salvo in the Christmas festivities with a three day festival November 18-20 on SEVEN blocks of Main Street in historic downtown Springboro.

Now in it's 25th year, this Yuletide celebration is expected to pull around 70,000 people to this huge Christmas block party!

Hours:

Friday 6 - 10 p.m. (Opening Ceremony at 6:45 and tree lighting at 7 p.m.)

Saturday 10 a.m. - 9 p.m. (Parade at 11:55 a.m.)

Sunday 12 p.m. - 5 p.m.

Entertainment:

Each day the kids of the area will be adding to the festivities, with local school choirs, dancers and musicians doing their thing for your enjoyment!  And there's a dedicated Children's Tent, with entertainment oriented just to the kids:  jugglers, ventriloquists, musicians and puppet shows!

Vendors:

Of  course there will be vendors!  Gift items, food and more!  And did we mention HEATED tents?  The weather has been getting cooler, and that crisp evening air just may encourage you to head inside for a warm up!

Where?

South Main Street from Central to Mill.  The street WILL be closed.  Horse drawn wagons available to transport you from one end of the festival to the other!

Parking:

Free at the following locations:

Jonathan Wright Elementary School (behind Speedway and River Valley Credit Union on SR73)

Minds in Motion School (north of the festival on SR741)

City Parking lots east of the festival along East Street

Clear Creek Elementary and Clear Creek Intermediate Schools south of the festival

So if you're looking for some early Christmas cheer, we're going to include a clip of last year's Christmas parade with the Springboro High Marching Band:

 

We hope you have a great time!
