It’s the most wonderful time of the year! There is no better place to celebrate than in Downtown Kings Mountain with a Christmas Kings Mountain Parade and Festival featuring decorated vehicles, Christmas lights, interactive experiences, and free festive fun for the entire family.

Make plans to gather downtown at Patriots Park after the Christmas Parade for an evening with Christmas Lights, Carriage Rides, Hayrides, Train Rides, Interactive Characters, Santa, and Much More!

Kings Mountain takes great pride in its special blend of family-friendly holiday magic. Stroll through Patriots Park and experience Costner’s Christmas Lights Extravaganza and Santa’s Workshop. Holiday Bazaar located at KM Marketplace, will feature local goods that will make the perfect stocking stuffers, and, of course, the extremely popular Bela Express Train Rides will be returning for another season. Holly Jolly Hayrides and North Pole Express Carriage Rides will roll Downtown, bringing even more Christmas cheer.
