Gainesville residents and area shoppers will soon have a Holly Jolly Trolley at their service for the holidays!
That’s because the City of Gainesville’s annual free public transit service begins its holiday seasonal run from November 29, through December 27 during each Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The Holly Jolly Trolley connects City of Gainesville, Georgia residents and visitors with the historic square in downtown Gainesville–home of award-winning growlers and tasting rooms, restaurants and retailer–with the Wilshire Wonderland of Lights, an annual walk-through holiday lights display at Wilshire Trails Park hosted by Gainesville Parks & Recreation. The Holly Jolly Trolley will make a continuous 3-mile loop between the historic square and Wilshire Trails Park. New in 2025 is a stop at Ivey Terrace Park, located at 607 Ridgewood Terrace (no parking, trolley rider pick-up/drop-off only). Riders should have access to the Holly Jolly Trolley every 15-20 minutes. You can explore the map here: https://www.gainesville.org/757/Holly-Jolly-Trolley-Map.
Gainesville’s Public Relations Director Christina Santee-Moss says, “Since its inaugural year in 2022, the Holly Jolly Trolley has continued to gain traction with residents and visitors alike, welcoming aboard thousands of riders each holiday season.” In 2024, the Holly Jolly Trolley saw approximately 5,725 riders throughout Gainesville.
You can find full details about the Holly Jolly Trolley scheduled routes and locations by viewing the City of Gainesville’s Facebook page.
