Prosper Christmas Festival

About the Event

Schedule:

Come celebrate the season with us at the Prosper Christmas Festival. The Town’s premier event of the year is a wonderland of holiday-themed attractions (with the stunning Town Hall as backdrop!) with entertainment for all ages and cozy spaces to mix, mingle, and shop. Numerous Sponsors and Exhibitors come together to make this event more than just a gathering. The Prosper Christmas Festival is an engaging community experience and Christmas celebration like no other

Festivities include Santa’s Workshop, Kids Christmas Shoppe, Horse-drawn Carriage Rides, Kid Zone, Santa's Selfie Station, Community Stage performances, cookie decorating and twinkling exhibits packed with gifts and goodies for sale. Just before 7 p.m., children will gather with Prosper Mayor David Bristol for the countdown to the Community Tree Lighting, followed by the event finale, a spectacular drone show.

Rotary Club Christmas Parade:
The Prosper Rotary Club Christmas Parade at 2:30 p.m. is the traditional opening act for the Prosper Christmas Festival. Floats and vehicles, Town officials, Town staff and Santa Claus travel down Broadway Street to Prosper Town Hall to kick off the event.  Parade-goers are encouraged to find a spot along 5th Street or Broadway Street to watch the show.

Main Attractions:

Community Tree Lighting at 7PM
