Friday, December 11 · downtown Terrell · Candy Crawl 5–6:30 p.m.; Santa visits 5–7 p.m. Central.
Historic downtown Terrell is planning a family holiday celebration on Friday, December 11, combining the city’s tree lighting with a Christmas Candy Crawl. The City of Terrell shared the organizers’ event announcement, giving residents an early opportunity to plan for the December evening.
Two listed activity windows
The event details list the Terrell Downtown Christmas Candy Crawl from 5 to 6:30 p.m. and visits with Santa Claus from 5 to 7 p.m. Those are Central times in Terrell. The Facebook event header can display December 12 at midnight for readers using Central European Time; that converts to 5 p.m. December 11 in Texas.
What the organizers have announced
The planned activities include Christmas carolers, performances by four elementary-school choirs at the tree lighting, the Christmas tree lighting itself, the Terrell Heritage Market and a Santa Paws pet adoption event. The announcement describes a family-friendly celebration but does not assign a separate time to every activity. Do not treat the Candy Crawl’s start time as a confirmed tree-lighting ceremony time.
