Before it begins, other activities and contests will be held, including Cinderella Carriage Rides, at 7th and Commercial, and Horse-Drawn Sleigh Rides, at 5th and Commercial.

The Santa House will be open from 10:00 until 3:30 in the 500 Block of Commercial, while a Litte Christmas Train will run from noon until 4:30 in the 600 block of Commercial.
Face painting happens from noon to 5:00, in the Mall Towers dining room, while story time is planned from noon to 4:00 aboard the Atchison Trolley.
It all leads up to the grand finale, as the Parade of Lights begins at 5:30.
A wide variety of lighted floats, divided into the divisions of family, business, and church/youth groups, will be seen making their way through downtown Atchison, serving as a welcome to the Spirit of Christmas.
