Town Square Welcome to the Georgetown Square, the “Most Beautiful Town Square in Texas.” Host to many special events, from First Fridays on the Square and Second Saturdays, to Music on the Square and The Georgetown Swirl, the square is lovingly known as the “heart” of the city. Its growing mix of businesses and residents support and enjoy the vibrant daily activity and special events that bring people from all over to experience authenticity. In March of each year, the Georgetown Main Street Program holds Texas wine, local food and downtown shopping celebration on the Square. Guests stroll the historic square with their commemorative tasting glass and visit participating retail outlets where they sample wine and food while enjoying shopping specials. Proceeds from the event benefit the Main Street Façade & Sign Grant Program that helps downtown business and building owners. Family-friendly entertainment doesn’t get any better than the annual Red Poppy Festival, a Georgetown and Central Texas tradition. To celebrate the annual April bloom of poppies and the title of “Red Poppy Capital of Texas,” over 65,000 people attend the festival to enjoy family, friends, music, and food for days of endless fun. Each December, the Georgetown Square is transformed into a genuine Christmas card brought-to-life. Enjoy arts, crafts, kids activities, and a visit with Santa Claus in a magical setting of trees lined with twinkling white lights The Magic of the Stroll is as real as the enchanted memories it has created since 1980. 9
