Community Tuesday, October 18, 2016

The Graham Companies and Main Street Merchants are inviting South Floridians to join them for the 32nd annual Main Street Festival of Lights from 5 to 9 p.m. on Saturday, November 26.

Every holiday season, Main Street becomes a magical place to make memories with family, friends and loved ones experiencing a series of holiday-themed activities along the two blocks of Miami Lakes’ downtown.

Visitors are urged to arrive early before the festival begins and take advantage of sales in honor of Small Business Saturday®, a day to celebrate and support small businesses and all they do for the local community.

There will be something for everyone to enjoy during the festival including the Lighting of Main Street at the Main Stage near the fountain at 6:30 p.m., a live DJ, photo stations, performances by students from local schools, characters, and lots of complimentary activities for children courtesy of presenting sponsors including The Graham Companies and Main Street Merchants, and supporting sponsor Publix Super Markets.

Media partners for the event include The Miami Herald, Y100 Miami’s #1 Hit Music Channel, and 93.9 MIA, Miami’s Rhythm from the ‘80s to Now.

Santa Claus will be on hand and he won’t be camera shy. Take pictures with Santa and Mrs. Claus with proceeds from all photo purchases benefiting Miami Lakes Boy Scout Troop #49.
“The lighting of Main Street has been a favorite tradition in this community for 32 years,” said Andrea Graham Rechichi, Corporate and Customer Relations manager for The Graham Companies. “We are truly fortunate to be a part of such a celebration that continues to draw so many families together to kick-off the holiday season.”
