The annual Celebrate Colleyville holiday event complete with Santa and a snow hill, will begin on Friday this year to allow three days of holiday events in the city, officials said.
"We changed it to give ourselves a full holiday weekend," said Colleyville Communications Director Mona Gandy.
The free Celebrate Colleyville event takes place from 4 to 10 p.m. Friday Dec. 5, at the Colleyville Center, 5301 Riverwalk Drive.
New events this year include a rolling snow hill for tubing and a spinning ride called Mind Winder with holiday lights. Favorites returning include the three-story holiday slide, Euro-bungee and the children’s craft area.
The fun Santa Paws Show, where the four-legged stars show off their talent, will offer performances at 4:45 p.m., 6 p.m. and 7:45 p.m.
Some of Colleyville’s talented kids from local performance groups and choirs will entertain from the main stage by the Colleyville Holiday Tree. Radio Disney will also offer fun contests and prizes.
Festival-goers can also stroll through the Holiday Market, where arts and crafts, jewelry, holiday decorations and gifts will be on sale.
The Holiday Food Court will offer holiday treats such as funnel cakes, tater twisters, sausage on a bun or stick, in addition to soft drinks and hot chocolate.
