Top Events in Coral Gables in November
Merrick Festival Caroling Competition
Unlike many events this year, the Merrick Festival Caroling Competition will not be canceled. Instead, it will just be virtual. All of the 21 schools will create a 10-minute video and judges will view and critique the performance, as well as give their final score. The 34th Annual Caroling Competition will be broadcast on the City of Coral Gables’ Facebook page, YouTube channel and on Coral Gables Television on Dec. 2 and 3.
