“This is a wonderful example of the city partnering with our community businesses to brighten our city and make it even more of a destination for the holiday season,” Mayor Chris Cloudman said in a release. “We invite people to spend part of their holidays in DeLand and do their holiday shopping at our local businesses, too.”

Following the start of Winter Wonder DeLand, there will be a Christmas parade on Dec. 3. There will also be a “Walk through Christmas at Earl Brown Park” that transforms the park into a “European style Christmas market.”

Throughout December, Santa Claus will be riding the city’s antique fire truck to spread Christmas cheer.
