Tis the season to find your way to Downtown Springdale tomorrow for an array of special Christmas events as the season bursts onto the scene just a few hours after the turkey is done digesting and all the stuffing and pie has been put away. Get down to Emma Avenue and experience all the splendor of the season with shopping specials, coordinated events, food and drink and the annual parade.

Christmas on the Creek has a variety of things to offer starting at 1 and running through 6 o'clock in the evening. There is a Hot Cocoa Crawl, which has been such a tremendous success that all the mugs have sold out. We will also be lighting the region's largest live Christmas Tree and Santa Claus will be taking photos with all comers in the cabin at the Shiloh Museum. There will be a Handmade Winter Market as well as a variety of other family activities available throughout the day.

Last, but certainly not least, the Christmas Parade of the Ozarks kicks off at 6:00 from Parsons Stadium celebrated its 2019 theme, "Christmas Vacation". The parade will have floats of all kinds and is free to the public. It will travel West down Emma and is always a magical time for the children in our community.

Emma Avenue will have all kids of holiday specials and wonderful inventory. Stop by Whimsy Whoo Downtown, Lost and Found, Sire, The Avenue and Della DeVille's to do some holiday shopping. Grab a bite to eat at Sammich Love, Mr. Taco Loco, Mothership, Spring Street Grill or one of the other eateries in the Downtown District. Lastly, close out your night with a drink at Black Apple Crossing, Emma Avenue Bar and Tap or stop by and see Jeffro at The Odd Soul. Wherever you choose to visit get to know them, build community and get out there and Live Springdale!
