Christmas is fast approaching, and the Town of Mocksville has lots of fabulous activities guaranteed to make your holiday a little more merry and bright!
Mocksville’s Hometown Christmas Parade – December 3
Mocksville’s Hometown Christmas Parade is an annual holiday tradition that has delighted young and old for decades. This year’s theme is “Rocking Around the Christmas Tree.”
The parade will feature everything from walking groups, performers, horseback riders, and single vehicles to full-blown floats, candy for the kids, and of course, Santa Claus. A list of participants and their locations can be found HERE.
The parade will depart from Rich Park on Saturday, December 3 at 2 p.m. and will travel down Main Street, turn left on Depot Street, and end at Railroad Street, where dismantling will begin.
Please note: Limited through traffic will begin at 1 p.m., and the parade route streets (Main, Depot, Park, Poplar, etc.) will be closed to ALL traffic by 1:15 p.m. so that the parade may start on time at 2 p.m.
Jingle All the Way – Carriage Rides – December 9
What better way to enjoy the Christmas lights and the spirit of the holidays than a ride through Historic Downtown Mocksville in a horse-drawn carriage! The buggy can hold 4-6 people, so bring the family and enjoy a FREE carriage ride down Main Street and the downtown area. Carriages will depart from West Depot Street near Lydia Jaynes on December 9th from 6-8 p.m. Parking is available at Town Hall.
