Hayrides, strolling minstrels, carolers, and a large number of choral and orchestral groups are all part of the Fifteenth Annual Christmas in the Village to be held on Friday December 9th, Saturday December 10th, Friday December 16th and Saturday December 17th, 2005, beginning at 6:00 p.m.
During these four evenings, La Mesa Boulevard from Fourth Street to Acacia Avenue will be transformed into a pedestrian promenade where families are invited to sample a variety of holiday goodies as they stroll among the quaint shops and craft booths that will adorn the Village.
Reminiscent of European Christmas Markets which have been the holiday gathering place in numerous cities and villages throughout England and the Continent, The Christmas in the Village in La Mesa will feature lots of holiday music and entertainment from a more relaxed era.
The San Diego East County Chamber of Commerce and the La Mesa Village Merchant's Association are co-coordinators of the event.
A convenient way to attend the event is to ride the Trolley to the La Mesa Boulevard Station which is right in the center of the Christmas Village Festival.
