The holidays are officially here, Charleston — and Credit One Stadium is jam-packed with festive fun, community cheer, and plenty of ways to give back.

🎄 Festivities for the family

Kick off the celebrations at the Annual Tree Lighting Ceremony on Friday, Dec. 5. This free event features:

  • Live music from Shane Griffin Entertainment
  • A magical snow show
  • Visits with Santa and Mrs. Claus
  • Cookie decorating, face painting, caricature art, and fairy hair

Gates open at 6 p.m., with the tree lighting at 7 p.m.

Pro tip: Warm up with hot chocolate or a seasonal cocktail, then pick up a fresh Christmas tree from the Delancey Street Foundation to support their local programs.

✨ Share the holiday spirit

Across campus, the 18th Annual Holiday Classic runs Friday, Dec. 5-Sunday, Dec. 7 at LTP Daniel Island.

Tennis and pickleball players will hit the courts in doubles matches to raise funds and collect toys for the MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital.

Weekend highlights include:

  • A Friday night player dinner
  • Awards for champions and finalists
  • A toy drive: bring a new, unwrapped gift from the MUSC Child Life Wish List to help brighten a child’s holiday

Our advice? Grab your family and friends and make the most of the season’s magic — there’s truly something for everyone.
