The stroll is free and runs from 5:30 to 9 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, December 18 and 19. Along with the lights and displays there is free hot cocoa, s'mores by the fire and holiday movies on the lawn, plus music and dancing. Children can peek into Santa's 'Brooksville Delivery Station,' explore an expanded Christmas tree forest where familiar characters appear, and pose with Santa and Mrs. Claus in a sleigh originally built by Roger's Christmas Village; the organizers also promise a snowy surprise. The historic Russell Street Train Depot opens free during the stroll. Horse-drawn carriage rides down the brick street are booked separately through Country Depot, and TJ's food truck sells meals. ## Similar picks in Tampa - [Night of Lights: Victorian Christmas Party at the May-Stringer House — Brooksville](https://grassyknees.com/tampa/activities/night-of-lights-victorian-christmas-party-at-the-may-stringer-house-br--listing-710135540e7b360aaa05d63e) — Fri, Dec 11 · 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM · May-Stringer House, Brooksville · All ages · From $10 · checked Oct 27.
