Food vendors sell warm drinks and sweet treats, and downtown shops stay open for holiday shopping. The Information Tent in Liberty Park is the event's lost-child station and lost-and-found, so it is worth pointing it out to children when you arrive and agreeing on a meeting spot. It is a good evening outing for families with children of all ages; dress for the cold and expect busy streets. ## Similar picks in Charlotte - [Christmas Candlelight Tours at Historic Brattonsville](https://grassyknees.com/charlotte/activities/christmas-candlelight-tours-at-historic-brattonsville--listing-91d0e7a32ad5c1761876da51) — Dec 12 – Dec 13 · 3:00 PM – 9:00 PM · Historic Brattonsville, McConnells · From $15 · checked Oct 28.
