Christmas is coming to downtown Cullman in a big way, and you’re invited!
Kick off the night on Friday, November 20 at 6:30 PM with the Christkindlmarkt Parade. Seven blocks of twinkling lights, bands, and festive floats will fill downtown, so grab your spot early and get ready to wave.
When the parade wraps up, follow the fun into the Christkindlmarkt for the South’s Largest Tree Lighting Show at 8 PM, hosted by James Spann. Santa, the Grinch, and Buddy the Elf will all be there for the big moment. Then stick around for a dazzling light show and a Christmas drone show that’ll have everybody looking up.
Bring the whole family and come celebrate where German tradition meets Southern charm. Admission is free!
