Press Release
November 5, 2007
Festival director Mark Beliles announces the line-up for this year’s
festival. The proven line-up of family favorites are still there that has
made it a success for 14 straight years drawing thousands of people
annually. But this year has two key changes: The parade has been expanded
and moved to Friday night November 16th to kick off the whole
weekend. The procession starts at the Ice Park and ends in the Pavilion
where various activities take place. The second important change to the
festival is the inclusion of light fare and special activities for kids at
the Ball (which also comes with a modest admission fee for the first time).
The original play that debuted last year is back again and the entire
festival includes seasoned actors and musicians and dancers from throughout
the mid-Atlantic region (along with many local amateurs). Performers are
listed on the website. Major sponsors this year include the city of
Charlottesville, the Daily Progress, Dailyprogess.com, NBC29, Albemarle
Family Magazine and Grace Covenant Church.
