Exciting Events Coming to Beaufort, Jasper, and Hampton Counties!

Hey there, folks! If you’re in or around Hampton, you’re in for a treat this December! The Hampton County Chamber of Commerce and the Town of Hampton are gearing up to kick off the holiday season with their much-anticipated Hometown Christmas event! Mark your calendars for Friday, December 6, starting at 5:30 p.m.

Holiday Cheer with a Parade!

The evening will get started with a delightful parade that kicks off at the parking lot of the Hampton Piggly Wiggly. The parade will roll down Elm Street, make a right turn onto Lee Avenue, and then a left on Magnolia Street. So grab your family, invite friends, and find a good spot to catch all the festive fun!

Sweets, Treats, and Santa!

Once the parade wraps up, everyone will gather at the Hampton Gazebo for some delicious cookies and milk. This is the perfect time for the kids to meet Santa and Mrs. Santa. Not only will it be a fantastic photo opportunity, but there will be 🎶 Christmas music 🎶 to set the mood, too! And don’t miss the moment when Hampton Mayor Robert Brown lights the official Christmas tree — it’s sure to be a magical sight!
