Nashville Holiday Events and the Parke Company

The holiday season in Nashville is a big to-do, Events all over the area and lights all around the city make it one of the best areas in the country for the holiday. From magical lights to mansion tours, Nashville has so much to offer those wishing to celebrate the season. Of course, visiting the state’s Christmas tree is the Parke Company’s favorite thing to do (see below), but there are so many ways to get in the holiday spirit all over Middle Tennessee. Here are just a few:

Holiday at Cheekwood
This annual event at Cheekwood is one of Nashville’s most beloved. The botanical garden has so many activities as well as displays of beautiful lights strung all over the trees. Arborists and light technicians work diligently to make every year better than the last. For tickets, visit their website.

Christmas at Belmont
Belmont has a wide variety of events for Christmas. Come visit Santa or attend a concert featuring Christmas carols. No matter the program, you’ll be sure to see everything the beautiful and historic mansion has to offer, including the landscape that surrounds it.

Dancing Lights of Christmas at Jellystone Park
Located on the north side of Nashville, the Dancing Lights of Christmas is Middle Tennessee’s largest drive-through light show. There’s nothing better to get you in the holiday spirit than some magical and sparkling lights in one of Nashville’s beautiful parks.

Andrew Jackson’s Hermitage Holiday Evening Tours
If you know anything about the staff at the Parke Company, you probably know they’re huge history buffs. So what’s better than putting their love for history and Christmas together? Come visit Andrew Jackson’s home for a holiday tour! See all that the property has to offer and learn some of the seventh president’s family traditions.

Capitol Christmas Tree
Parke can never get enough of the Capitol’s Christmas tree. If you missed the lighting ceremony or the downtown parade, that’s OK! You can still come visit the beautiful Norway Spruce on the capitol building’s front lawn. Interested in how Parke’s arborists transported the tree? Watch the video below for an insider’s look on the process.

There are so many great options for the holiday season. You really can’t go wrong. And our list doesn’t even cover all of it! Go ice skating at Opry Mills, see the Nutcracker at TPAC, or maybe start some new traditions and activities around your own Christmas tree. Whatever you do, we wish you a very happy and healthy holiday season!
