Charleston County Parks will open the Holiday Festival of Lights at James Island County Park on November 13, running nightly from 5:30 to 10 p.m. through December 31. The roughly three-mile drive-through route features more than 750 illuminated displays, and last season it drew 207,615 visitors in 60,441 vehicles.
Why this matters here
More than 200,000 visitors driving to James Island between mid-November and New Year's Eve is a seasonal traffic pattern local businesses can plan around, from staffing and inventory to timing a neighborhood offer for the weeks when those cars are on the road.
