Join the City of Spartanburg for Dickens of a Christmas in their beautiful Downtown. Starting with horse-drawn carriage rides, there is a progression of family activities — from living windows to strolling carolers singing, food vendors and Santa Claus. The highlight of the evening is always the lighting of the official Christmas tree at 7:30 pm. There will also be a huge Christmas Market on Broad Street beside the library.
