Downtown Pensacola lights up with the launch of a seven-week celebration of holiday magic. With dazzling lights, festive shopping, family fun, and a jolly lineup of events, it’s beginning to feel a lot like the holidays in the heart of the city.

Costumes, candy, creepy critters, a Haunted Trolley, a mini train and kids’ activities are planned for Saturday, Oct. 31

Board unanimously approves four-year extension following six years of downtown growth, investment and expanded programming.

This fall, one of downtown’s most recognizable buildings is getting a transformation that will probably make anyone walking down the street stop mid-stride.

Fall shopping event features seasonal sips, live music, new Fall merchandise, special deals and the chance to win multiple prizes from 23 participating downtown businesses
