About the Event
A Smoky Mountain Christmas transforms Downtown Waynesville into a glowing holiday scene each December, filling Main Street with luminaries, music, and old-fashioned Christmas charm. Visitors can enjoy horse-drawn wagon rides beneath a canopy of lights, meet Santa in Santaland, and experience the magic of the season in a warm, welcoming downtown setting.
Families are invited to follow the festive Elf Trail, discovering fun activities and surprises left by elves at participating Main Street businesses. The evening also features live music, art, ice carving demonstrations, photo opportunities, and a joyful holiday atmosphere that highlights downtown shopping and dining. Held in conjunction with First Baptist Church’s Little Bethlehem Live Nativity, this signature event beautifully blends tradition, community, and holiday wonder in the heart of Waynesville.
