Celebrate Christmas Downtown 2022

There's No Place Like Home

The annual lighting of the Rutherford County's Christmas Tree took place on the historic downtown square in front of the local courthouse on Friday, December 2.

This year’s festivities featured a live Nativity scene by Southeast Baptist Church, followed by choirs from Providence Christian Academy and MTCS.

There were free games and activities for children, along with carriage rides for only $5 (children under the age of 4 are free). At 6 p.m., the stage was filled with performances by Plainview and McFadden Elementary Schools.

The Center for the Arts will also performed a condensed version of the Nutcracker and of course, Santa and his Elves stopped by to light the tree.
