CHRISTMAS on the avenue
Celebrate the season in Downtown Biloxi as Christmas on the Avenue
returns in 2026, bringing holiday cheer, twinkling lights, and plenty of
reasons to make a night of it on Howard Avenue. Inspired by the inaugural
2025 celebration, this festive event transforms downtown with beautifully
decorated Christmas trees, live entertainment, snowfall, Santa sightings,
and family-friendly fun.
Stroll the avenue, enjoy local shops, restaurants, and bars, and soak up the
kind of Coastal holiday atmosphere that makes Christmas feel a little more
magical. In 2025, the celebration featured more than 150 illuminated
trees, a grand lighting, a Santa-led parade, and charitable giving, creating
a weekend centered on community, local businesses, and holiday spirit.
Christmas on the Avenue is ready to build on that tradition in 2026 with
another memorable celebration in the heart of Biloxi. Gather your family
and friends, wear your holiday best, and make Downtown Biloxi part of
your Coastal Mississippi Christmas tradition this season. Come for the
lights, stay for the fun, and discover Christmas with a Biloxi twist!
