The City of Cumming Christmas Parade & Festival is set to return. 

On Saturday, Dec. 7, local residents can line the streets of Tribble Gap and Castleberry roads from Forsyth Central High School to the Cumming Fairgrounds to see the procession of festive and lighted floats starting at 5 p.m.

The festival after the parade will feature food, music, vendors, hayrides, the city’s Christmas tree lighting and photo opportunities with Santa Claus until 8 p.m.

The city also announced that it’s partnering with The Place of Forsyth to support the local nonprofit’s annual “Holiday House” that allows families in need to have the dignity of choosing their own Christmas gifts.

Those who attend the festival are encouraged to bring new, unwrapped gifts for children ages infant through 18 years.
