Christmas 1-2-3

It’s almost that time of year again! As the weather gets colder, we are gearing up for a holiday season full of fun and festivities! The three Christmas events that the Chamber partners with local organizations to put on, nicknamed Christmas 1-2-3 Lebanon Tennessee, will begin on November 28.

The Festival of Lights, which highlights Fiddlers Grove Historic Village and the James E. Ward Agricultural Center, will be open November 28-30 and December 4-7, 11-14, 18-31. The light show features displays such as a Grinch in the jail and the twelve days of Christmas. While driving through the Festival of Lights, visitors may tune their radios to a local station for information about the displays, the history of the show, etc. The Festival of Lights will be open 5-9 p.m. nightly. Admission is $5 per vehicle.

Christmas on the Square is scheduled to take place on Saturday, December 6. The day will begin with holiday shopping and open house from 10 a.m. – 7 p.m. at various stores around the square. Holiday activities including entertainment, a live nativity scene, and pictures with Santa at the Chamber office, will take place from 3-7 p.m.
