The City of Gaffney is keeping the annual Christmas festivities alive in 2020 by offering an alternate, safe, socially-distanced plan to celebrate the holiday season while following CDC guidelines.
Join us on Friday, December 4th as we celebrate Christmas in Gaffney, South Carolina.
We will kick off the night at 6pm with a DRIVE-THRU Christmas parade. In a drive thru parade the entries and participants remain stationary while the spectators drive through and enjoy the parade from their vehicles. Parade will be open to spectators from 6pm-7:30pm.
The parade route will start at the intersection of Corry Street/S. Limestone Street and continue North through Historic Downtown Gaffney.
After the parade join us in Henry L. Jolly Park, 102 Railroad Avenue, to continue the festivities.
Santa Claus will be available from 6pm-9pm for socially distanced photo opportunities. Santa will also be collecting your letters and wish lists at the park.
We are also excited to announce that the award winning, Christmas Laser Light Show is back for a second year. The family-friendly laser shows include the latest musical hits, mind-blowing lasers and fantastic graphic effects. The Laser Light showtimes are as follows:
Friday, December 4th – 7pm-11pm
Saturday, December 5th – 7pm-11pm
Sunday, December 6th – 7pm-11pm
