COVINGTON, Ga. - Nov. 13, 2017 - PRLog -- Christmas is always a magical time of year. Parties with friends and family. Christmas light displays. Thoughtful Christmas presents.

The Lighting of Downtown Covington presented by Christmas Décor by Great Estates will take place on Thursday, November 16, 2017 from 6:00pm until 8:30pm.

The Lighting of Downtown Covington will be a great opportunity to begin your Christmas shopping. While the event is taking place, several of the businesses around Downtown Covington will be offering great specials and holiday promotions. The Covington Regional Ballet will be hosting the Grand Opening of their new studio on Washington Street. Lush Clothier & Gifts and Living Roots Home Décor are two new businesses to Downtown Covington, and they will be opening on the same day as The Lighting of Downtown Covington.
