If there’s one thing you can count on this holiday season, it’s that you’ll find some merriment on Main Street.

You can eat, shop, play, or stay all on Soda City’s Main Street (pro tip: do all 4!).

Whether you opt to enjoy rooftop holiday tunes at Hendrix or dine with friends in the wine room at Hampton Street Vineyard, Main Street has heaps of holiday fare to offer. If you’re shopping for someone special or looking for a last-minute stocking stuffer, The Shoppes on Main + Mast General store have got you covered.

Need some post-shopping sustenance? Try the cheeseburger + fries at the Whig (you can thank us later).

Stroll down Main Street + enjoy the lights or take a break from holiday shopping to see a movie at the Nick. Pro tip: Keep your eyes on Main Street’s Facebook + Instagram page for a “12 Days of Christmas” giveaway to help you countdown to Christmas. 🎁

And this year, Santa is coming to Main Street early!

Prohibition Charleston + Miracle Pop-Up are partnering to bring Miracle on Main, Christmas-themed pop-up holiday cocktail bar, to Columbia.

The pop-up will be taking over the former Main Street Public House building (1556 Main St.) this season + will remain open through Fri., Dec. 31.

And your Christmas wish came true — Prohibition Charleston is here to stay + will be the new cocktail bar and restaurant permanently moving into the space after the popup has ended. 🥂*
