…others may see it as the ultimate Christmas destination.

Every day the holiday season is filled with joy and festivity with a calendar of events that begins the day after Thanksgiving and ends January 5, 2020.

Some of the most notable events that you can count on during Holly Jolly Jekyll includes the Holly Jolly Lights tour, which consists of a trolley ride around town to see over half a million lights around the island.

Or the Mailbox on Main, which is a big mailbox set up at the corner of Main Street and Ocean Way in Beach Village where kids can drop off their letters to Santa.

Speaking of Santa, you’ll see him pop up at various events all over town all season long, too.

There will be holiday movie nights throughout the month of December, plus a character breakfast, holiday cookie decorating classes, Christmas Twilight tours, Jekyll Singers Christmas concerts, Gingerbread house building classes, and so much more.

You can hit the “ice” and skate with the whole family under the twinkling lights at Jekyll Island Skating Village.

Jekyll Island comes alive during the Christmastime with an entire month of exciting and heartwarming things to do for Holly Jolly Jekyll.
