THOMASVILLE — Flowers Foods’ annual gift to the community — Christmas in Lights — will open Friday, Nov. 25. 

The holiday light display is located on the grounds of the company’s corporate office off U.S. 19 South in Thomasville.

The display of sparkling trees, trumpeting angels, jumping deer and the Nativity has become a holiday tradition for many. First opened in 1995, the lighting display was inspired by the late W. H. Flowers Jr., the company’s longtime chairman and chief executive officer, who had a special fondness for Christmas.

Christmas in Lights runs through Saturday, Dec. 31. Admission is free to the public and the display is open every evening from 6 to 9.

The entrance is through the main gates on U.S. 19 South. Visitors are asked to turn off their headlights, observe the 5 miles per hour speed limit when driving through the display, and remain in their cars for safety.
