By TMoM Team Member Rachel Hoeing

It’s Christmas week! Once again, we are happy to share another list of Triad Holiday Events in Winston-Salem, Greensboro, High Point, Burlington, and Kernersville, as well as surrounding cities! Each Monday from now until New Year’s Day, we will publish a list of Triad holiday events and festivities happening that week. Remember that you can also submit an event at any time by filling out the form here. After the holidays are over, you will still be able to find holiday events at any time by visiting our community calendar.

In addition, you can visit our Event Calendar page now if you would like to look ahead for Triad Holiday Events, or view in a calendar format. You can also click the name of your city in the upper right hand corner of our site to see the calendar for just that area. In short, if you need to find an event, Triad Moms on Main is the website to visit!
