Holiday celebrations in the City of Elizabethtown are set to ramp up this weekend with multiple events on the calendar.
City of Elizabethtown Events Manager Beth Pyles says the State Theater will host their annual Breakfast with Santa on December 7.
“Tickets include a breakfast, which is delicious, a visit with Santa, a professional photograph, Christmas crafts, and a ticket to the showing of The Polar Express, the movie that day,” Pyles said.
The Polar Express is the kickoff to the State Theater’s Christmas movie series. Pyles says tickets will go fast for these holiday classics.
“Tickets are $3 each and the box office opens one hour before showtime,” Pyles said. “You can find the full list of movies on our site, thestate270.org. The titles include The Polar Express, It’s a Wonderful Life, Elf, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, The Grinch, and White Christmas.”
Don’t forget to come to Downtown Elizabethtown this Friday night for the Light Up E-Town Parade and Tree Lighting. The parade starts at 7 p.m.
“This is what we call a ‘reverse parade,’” Pyles said. “It starts at St. John Road and travels south on Dixie Highway and ends at the square downtown. Something that we’ll do this year, we’ll have some pre-parade performances in front of the State Theater from some local dance troupes. We’ll have snack vendors in the State Theater parking lot as well beforehand for those that want to get together downtown to watch the parade.”
Santa Claus and Elizabethtown Mayor Jeff Gregory will light the city’s Christmas tree and host other festivities at Walker Square after the parade.
