As hard as this year has tried, it's not going to leave us in the dark. We are about to LIGHT 2020 UP!
Â
Today, November 20th, our very anticipated Light Up Okotoks takes place and though it's going to be very different it's not going to be any less festive!
A lot of people are saying..."well I know it's going to be different but what's exactly happening?" (Great question!)
I've got the answers for you, here's a run down on 2020's Light Up Okotoks!
- 2020 Okotoks Light Up: This year it's all about the annual light tour! A map will be announced tomorrow @ 5:30pm (I love the suspense!). So grab a hot cocoa, your fam or close friends and check out all the beautiful Christmas displays. ALSO Mayor Bill will be doing a virtual tree lighting so don't miss that! (what would this pandemic be without a virtual alternative!?)
^no such thing as too much. 😆
- Okotoks Elks Christmas Market: Their farmers market was such a success they decided to have a Christmas version! (I love that for us!) Check out this Xmas market, conveniently located downtown, that will host 40+ vendors at the Elks Hall. Jewellery, Fine Arts, Sewing, Baking, Beer & Spirits all some of the gifts featured here! Treat your loved ones OR yourself!
- Festive Friday's: Starting this Friday a bunch of your fave local downtown businesses are staying open later than usual so you can enjoy some festive eats, good treats and Christmas shopping! They've got a map laid out with all the places you'll want to hit. Don't know what to do with the little ones? Call The Park! Choose local this holiday season!
- Light Up Okotoks @ the Library: the Library is open 5pm-8pm for Light Up with some fun actives for the fam! Whether it be an old fashioned bag of Christmas crafts, a festive family photo or a Christmas Wishing Tree Fundraiser. They've got it all to kick off everything Xmas!
Photos @ the library be like ^
Well, there ya have it! A little bit of a rundown on what's happening! Do you know of anything else? Let me know!
Comment on Facebook if I've missed anything so we can get everyone in on the Christmas spirit!
