Enjoy a warm winter welcome this holiday season with a getaway to the Southeast. Celebrate a Lowcountry tradition at Charleston’s Holiday Festival of Lights featuring over two million shimmering lights that transform the historic streets into a magical winter wonderland. The celebration continues with festival train rides, marshmallow roasts and carousel rides. Stroll through Santa’s Village, shop at Santa’s Attic and the Incredible Gifte Shoppe and treat yourself to something sweet at Santa’s Sweet Shoppe or the Northpole Diner.
If Georgia’s on your mind, be sure to visit Marietta’s turn-of-the century town square, just 15 miles northwest of Atlanta, with candlelight shopping, theatre and dining. Nearby Sandy Springs entertains with art galleries, historical sites and delicious culinary experiences. Savannah’s Holly Days captures the spirit of the season with City Market Christmas celebrations, the Boat Parade of Lights, and a snow area and skating rink.
Let snowy white sands set the scene for your next winter holiday. Pensacola’s beaches offer the perfect backdrop for celebrations including the annual Boat Parade (Dec. 9), Winterfest Trolley Tours, the Surfing Santa Parade (Dec. 11) and concerts in Old Seville Square. Feel the stress of the holidays melt away on the Alabama Gulf Coast, where white sand beaches and sparkling emerald waters invite rest and relaxation.
Discover where Smoky Mountain fun begins at 22nd Annual Sevierville Tennessee Winterfest Celebration (Nov. 7, 2011 - Feb. 28, 2012) with live music, dancing in the streets, hayrides with Santa and great shopping.
