Holiday Nights & Lights: A Drive Through Light Show

🌟The Gullah Village at Holiday Nights and Lights Drive Through Light Display🌟

Join us for a mesmerizing drive through the Historic Mitchelville Freedom Park as it transforms into a Gullah Village decorated for the Holidays! From December 6-8, our beloved Holiday Nights & Lights event returns for the sixth year, bringing with it twinkling lights and fun holiday displays.

The display is open nightly from Saturday, December 6th, through Monday, December 8th, 2025, from
6:00 PM – 8:00 PM at Historic Mitchelville Freedom Park, 40 Harriet Tubman Way, Hilton Head Island, South Carolina 29926. This event is for all ages, where children and adults alike can immerse themselves in a dazzling holiday light display.

This year, our theme is “The Gullah Village ” to celebrate our local Gullah and Historic Communities and the rich holiday traditions throughout the Lowcountry. Drive through the village and visit with our community, just as in the days “before the bridge,” when the holidays were a time for families to be together and enjoy simple joys like singing hymns, exchanging gifts like fresh fruit, and decorating the tree with Spanish moss. Be on the lookout for special recognition of The Gullah Museum, The Heritage Library, Penn Center, Lowcountry Gullah, NIBCAA, and more!

Prepare for a magical evening at the Park—grab some hot cocoa, tune into your favorite Christmas music channel, and keep an eye out for surprises that might seem a bit out of place in the park! To avoid long waits, we recommend lining up on Beach City Road beginning at 5:45 pm or at 7:30 pm. We ask for your patience with our volunteers and fellow participants. Admission is free, but donations are warmly accepted to support our mission. For more information about this event via our website at exploremitchellville.org or call 843-255-7301.

-Festive Atmosphere: As you drive through, be enchanted by holiday fun and music that you can tune into on your car radio.
-A Celebration of Community: Most importantly, this event is a celebration of unity, joy, and the spirit of the holidays. It’s a time to come together, be dazzled, and make lasting memories.
=Safety First: This event is designed to be enjoyed from the safety and comfort of your vehicle.
