TALLAHASSEE, FL — The City of Tallahassee's annual Elf Night event will bring holiday cheer and heavier traffic to the Dorothy B. Oven Park area on Thursday, December 18th.
The City says the event runs from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m. at Dorothy B. Oven Park off Thomasville Road. They say, for safety reasons, vehicles will not be allowed to drive through the park during the event.
They say free public parking will be available next to the park at Thomasville Road Baptist Church.
The release says drivers traveling along Thomasville Road should slow down and drive with caution near the park. Pedestrians and law enforcement will be present in the area. If you don't plan on coming to the event, the City says you should use an alternate route.
For those attending, the release states, Santa Claus, Mrs. Claus, and a host of elves will make appearances. Visitors who want to see them should check in on the front lawn upon arrival to get a ticket number on a first-come, first-served basis until all tickets are claimed.
Hot cocoa and cookies will be provided by Santa's helpers while supplies last.
The holiday light display will be open through January 1 from 6:00-10:00 p.m. on weekdays and 5:30-11:00 p.m. on weekends. Every night except Elf Night, visitors can drive through or walk the grounds, weather permitting.
