Friday evening found the streets in the historic town square in Dandridge awash in a glow, as candlelight shopping took place. Carriage rides through the historic town square afforded visitors the opportunity to view the display of lights in store windows. Shoppers strolled the streets and carolers sang holiday tunes. ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas came to life on the courthouse steps, thanks to the talents of performers from Legacy Theatre in Jefferson City, who also wowed the crowd with traditional seasonal music. Friday’s events were a part of Christmas in Dandridge, a month long variety of events that spotlight the town and will continue until Santa ushers in the Christmas Parade on Saturday.
