The holiday season in Hickory will officially begin on Friday at 7 p.m. when the Christmas tree lights are officially turned on during the Hickory Christmas Lighting Celebration in Downtown Hickory. Hickory Mayor Rudy Wright will turn on the “official light switch” on the Flag Court on Union Square that will light up the trees and poles throughout the Downtown Hickory area.

Festivities on Union Square begin at 6:30 p.m. and will continue until 8 p.m. Mr. and Mrs. Claus will greet kids of all ages and local musician Rick Cline will provide holiday music. Many of Downtown Hickory’s businesses will be open and all the restaurants welcome citizens to enjoy.
