1. A Very GNV Holiday Parade
KNR • November 18, 2025
- Date/Time: Saturday, December 6, starting at noon. Gainesville, Florida

- Why it’s a good pick: Family-friendly, lots of festive energy, floats, live bands and dancers downtown. A great way to highlight community involvement for your tenant and owner newsletters.
- Tip for you as property manager / marketer: Encourage tenants and owners to get involved — maybe promote a “watch party” at a local café or ask them to decorate their front porches leading up to the parade for social media content.
2. Winter Wonderland (Gainesville)
- Dates/Time: Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays from Nov 29 – December 29, from 5:30 pm – 9:00 pm. Winter Wonderland –
- Location: North Central Florida YMCA, 5201 NW 34th Blvd, Gainesville, FL 32605. Winter Wonderland –
- Why it’s a good pick: This is a walk-through festive light show — 100,000 lights, ornament‐making, cookie decorating, Santa photo ops. Feels special and seasonal.
- Tip: Use this in your newsletter with a local photo (if you can) and maybe include a discount/promo code if available. Could also be a fun “tenant appreciation” outing or weekend suggestion for the families renting with you.
3. Cedar Key Dock Street Christmas Market

- Location: Dock Street, Cedar Key, FL 32625. fun4gatorkids.com+1
- Why it’s a good pick: A little off the beaten path (but still within reach for your region: Gainesville → Cedar Key), gives your newsletter a “day-trip” idea for owners or tenants. Unique local flavor.
- Tip: Suggest taking advantage of this event as a way to explore the broader rental market region (Cedar Key) — for investors or owners thinking about expanding. Good synergy with your property-owner marketing.

- Why it’s a good pick: Closer to Gainesville, easy for your audience. Great for local families, community vibe, direct small-town holiday feel.
- Tip: Include a call to action: “Stop by after work with your family, support local artisans, then grab dinner in Newberry.” Good content for your tenant tip section.
5. Momentum Dance Presents Holiday Fantasy Recital
- Date/Time: Saturday, December 6, at 1:00 pm. performingarts.ufl.edu
- Location: Venue via University of Florida Performing Arts / Gainesville.
- Why it’s a good pick: While more niche (dance recital), it’s part of the holiday arts scene — good for appealing to a different segment of your newsletter audience (tenants/owners interested in culture, performing arts).
- Tip: If you manage more upscale/amenity-rich properties, mention this as a local value-added benefit: “Within minutes of your rental property you’ll find quality local arts and holiday performances.”
