Christmas Parade And Light Up The Night

Step into a holiday wonderland in North Carolina’s mountains this season! Downtown Brevard comes alive with twinkling lights, illuminated snowflakes, and beautifully decorated storefronts during Light Up the Night. This day-long festival kicks off with the Merry Maker’s Market, featuring dozens of local vendors, live music, performances, and food trucks—all in downtown.

Grab a spot on Main Street for the Brevard Christmas Parade, followed by the annual tree-lighting ceremony. Downtown festivities continue with hayrides, festive shopping, fire pits for roasting marshmallows, a local ice carver, llama selfies, inflatables, and entertainment by Tuba Christmas and dance troupes—all happening right in the heart of downtown Brevard.

We'll see you there!
