It’s Thanksgiving week at Speedway Christmas presented by Atrium Health, so once the turkey is stuffed and the pumpkin pie is gone, holiday revelers are invited out to experience the magic of Speedway Christmas through a mesmerizing four-mile light show featuring over 5 million twinkling lights and endless holiday cheer.
This week’s must-see highlights include:
THE MOVIES:
Cozy up Thursday through Sunday for Queen City News Movie Nights featuring The Grinch (2018).
