Holiday Events in Dallas, GA

Pickett’s Mill Battlefield Historic Site

The Pickett’s Mill Battlefield Historic Site is a popular attraction in Dallas and the perfect place to go if you want to learn more about the history of the area and the famous Civil War battle in 1864. The historical site has been preserved throughout the years to show visitors the record of the roads, ravines, and earthworks created by the soldiers. The site hosts several events throughout the year, including several holiday activities.

Come out on November 3rd – 4th from 6-10 p.m. for their annual History by Candlelight event. A guide will lead you on a candlelight tour of the battlefield, and you can walk down paths leading to incredible reenacted battle scenes while using your imagination to experience the past and leave illuminated by history! Preregistration required.

On Saturday, Dec 16th, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Holidays on the Home Front returns. This is a celebration you don’t want to miss! The 1860s holiday spirit will be in full effect with crafts, games, and decorating activities for all to enjoy. Santa will also attend from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., so don’t forget to stop by for the fun!

Dallas Theatre

The holiday season is a great time to catch a show. From music concerts, dance performances, and live theatre, you can find a way to celebrate the arts in the coming weeks. Check out the Dallas Theater to enjoy a range of live performances and events. There are two unique teen classes planned in November, “Learn to Belt” and “Yes…And: An Improv Workshop” for ages 13-17. This is a great way to foster your children’s love for performance art and involve them in a fun, social activity.

The Dallas Theatre holiday show lineup is just as impressive. See The Nutcracker performed by Studio 4 The Arts from December 8th-10th, A Christmas Carol by Mad Artists’ Entertainment from December 15th-17th, and the annual screening of It’s a Wonderful Life on Friday, December 22nd at 7 p.m. for free on the big screen!

Paulding Fine Arts Center

If you want to view more fine art this season, check out the Paulding Fine Arts Center! Located in downtown Dallas, this popular art gallery has historical roots from its humble beginnings as a courthouse building in the late 1800s. The city of Dallas created this fine arts center in 1982 to provide opportunities to experience the arts through observation, education, and participation. The old courtroom is now an art gallery, and court offices are studios for professional artists who live and work in the area, selling their beautiful pieces. Each month, there is a different art exhibit with featured artists.

Downtown Dallas Main Street

Residents of Dallas, GA, look forward to the many events the city hosts every year in its downtown main street area. Each month, you can find your neighbors and friends gathered for the annual farmer’s market or another fun festival. In November and December, be sure to participate in their most popular events of the year: the 4th Annual Christmas Tree Lighting on November 25th, the Festival of Trees decorating contest from November 25th-December 25th, the Invitational Dallas Christmas Parade on December 2nd, and the Silver Comet Drop on December 31st!

Ask a real estate agent, nothing makes a brand new kitchen more welcoming than the smell of fresh-baked goodies! This Christmas, if you’re lucky enough to be warming up the oven to treat guests to family-favorite baked goods, why not take a swing at something new and amazing too? We have three of our top picks for unique Christmas cakes and cookies here today, including a recipe for something fun, a surprising and exciting recipe, and a cookie recipe that’s so simple you’ll have to restrain yourself from indulging in them every single day!

Frosted Fun: Edible Tic-Tac-Toe

Your strict old great aunt Gerta was wrong – you absolutely can play with your food! All you really need for this one are lines and pieces to represent X’s and O’s. Whether that’s decorated X- and O-shaped cookies, or cupcakes vs. Christmas-shape ginger snaps, the genius of this idea is all about how simple it is to make! You just need a board to go under your shapes; you can go as simple as pie crusts cut straight across and baked, then laid on a plate, or you can decorate a frosted cake board to cut into after the winner is declared. It’s all up to you, and your whole family will be wowed by how creative your baking is!

Forget the Wrapping: Hidden Present Cake

Who doesn’t love a surprise? Cakes with overflowing candy filling are all over TikTok, but how about a Christmas present with wrapping made entirely out of frosting and delicious sponge cake? If you have a cake pan that’s large enough, it’s actually much easier than it sounds. First, bake at least two layers of your sponge cake. While they’re baking, make sure your present is actually wrapped with clean wrapping paper – if you really want to protect it (and the cake), go ahead and wrap the outside with food-safe foil or plastic wrap as well. When your layers are done baking, let them cool, cut a hole in the bottom-most layer in the shape of your gift box, and make sure the top of the box is level with the top of the layer. Ice over the cake and the box, then lay the top layer on. The present should be totally concealed now, and all you have to do is decorate the outside of your cake. Careful when you cut in, and enjoy the look on all your guests’ faces during the big reveal!

Easy Peasy: Super-Soft 3-Ingredient Nutella Cookies

Finally, we have one of the easiest, tastiest treats that the internet has ever invented. 3-ingredient Nutella cookies are exactly what they sound like: a delicious, chocolate-hazelnutty treat that comes together in a snap and satisfies even the biggest sweet tooth. Gemma’s Bigger Bolder Baking is to thank for this recipe, but you can alter the ingredient ratio to experiment with different consistencies if you want them firmer or fluffier. Her recipe calls for 1 cup flour, 1 cup Nutella, and 1 large egg, or egg substitute. That’s it! Heat the oven, mix the dough, and in minutes you have an entire pan of irresistible, gooey Nutella cookies. Bake a dozen, or bake ten dozen – it’s truly the gift that keeps on giving!
