Christmas Lane looking for entertainers

Christmas Lane is now accepting applications for singers and groups to entertain the crowds each night of Christmas Lane. A large stage and professional crew will support your act. Interested applicants may download forms at Christmas Lane’s newly designed website, ChristmasLane.org, and return forms to ChristmasLaneEntertainment@gmail.com.

The final performance schedule will be announced on Oct. 9.

Performer and chaperone tickets will be mailed Nov. 9.

Christmas Lane is moving to the Florida Strawberry Festival Expo Hall this holiday season. The lighted tradition has been held at 2091 S. Wooten Road in Dover for decades by strawberry grower Lane Wetherington.

Last year rain soaked the parking lot of Christmas Lane. The festivities also were rained out on several  nights.

Traffic was another issue as to why Wetherington moved Christmas Lane to the Expo Hall. He said guests would sometimes have to wait for 45 minutes to get into the parking lot. The Expo Hall has a large parking lot to accommodate guests.

Christmas Lane will be open for five weeks at the Expo Hall, from Thursday, Nov. 27, the day after Thanksgiving, to the third week in January. It will be open from 6 to 10 p.m. seven days a week.
