At Christmastime, Mitchell, South Dakota Has The Most Enchanting Main Street In The Country

You better watch out, you better not cry; you better not pout, I'm telling you why: Santa Claus is coming to town! Whatever your decorating style this time of year, South Dakota knows how to go all-out for the holidays, as evidenced by the most decorated streets and cities around the Mount Rushmore State. From Christmas lights and garlands to gingerbread towns, Santa villages, and more - we've got it! While nearly every SoDak town becomes aglow this time of year, one stands out as being even more magnificent than the rest, which is the iconic Mitchell:

Known both near and far for its one-of-a-kind Corn Palace...

Mitchell is arguably one of the best Christmas towns in South Dakota thanks, in part, to its dazzling main street!

It's absolutely gorgeous.

Every year, Mitchell's Main Street offers something special for everyone, including exclusive shows, holiday pop-ups, and unique shopping opportunities for everyone in the family.

But this South Dakota Christmas town doesn't stop there. Do you love a good parade? Then you do not want to miss the annual Parade of Lights!

Mitchell, South Dakota takes the traditional small-town parade concept up a few notches! Every year, the Parade of Lights & Christmas at the Palace promises a night full of music, entertainment, and stunning lights.

If you have any littles in the family who are dying to do their own shopping, there is an event for them, too: Christmas Shopping for Kids at the Masonic Temple.

In addition to all of the above, you can also enjoy The Nights Before Christmas Holiday Tour, Small Business Saturday shopping, visits with Santa, and so much more.

Do you need another reason to visit and love Mitchell's Main Street? It just looks so pretty and festive this most wonderful time of the year.
