Embrace the spirit of an old-fashioned holiday with family-friendly activities and festive performances at the Jacksonian Christmas Festival, on Saturday, Dec. 13 and Sunday, Dec. 14.

The festival will take place at Tulip Grove, a hidden gem on The Hermitage estate. Built for Andrew Jackson Donelson, private secretary to President Andrew Jackson, the pre-Civil War home is one of the best surviving examples of Greek Revival design in the state, making it the perfect place to host a holiday festival full of history and family fun.

Expect to be delighted with carolers spreading holiday cheer, live music and dance, holiday craft-making, pictures with Santa and Mrs. Claus, food trucks, artisan booths, and a Christmas trolley.

Plus, enhance your visit with a Jacksonian Christmas Tour or a horse-drawn wagon tour across the estate.
