Families stroll the lit paths and take photos among the decorations, children can sit down at an arts and crafts table set up for all ages, and a DJ plays seasonal music. Kilwins hands out free hot chocolate to the first 150 guests. The evening doubles as a food drive for Backpack Buddies, which sends weekend meals home with food-insecure children across metro Atlanta, so bring a non-perishable item if you can. A short, easy outing for strollers and small kids that pairs well with dinner in the district; no ticket is needed. ## Similar picks in Atlanta - [Christmas Parade & Light Up City Center Park — Fayetteville](https://grassyknees.com/atlanta/activities/christmas-parade-and-light-up-city-center-park-fayetteville--listing-37635ffb7a904747fff69005) — Fri, Nov 27 · 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM · City Center Park, Fayetteville · All ages · checked Oct 20.
