Christmas in the Village

This Christmas season enjoy the unique charm of our historic village. Taste our treats, take in our art, search our shops for that special gift, and have a great time.

On December 5 and 6, 2014, Nashville will host a weekend of events to kick off the holiday season. Enjoy small town charm nestled in the wooded hills of Brown County, with Christmas lights glowing on every corner to make a perfect setting for “Christmas in the Village.” The Christmas lights parade, the “Y’s” Reindeer Romp (a 5K run or walk in Brown County State Park), the Brown County Historical Society’s Ginger Bread House Competition and Display, the play “A Tuna Christmas” at the historical Brown County Playhouse, complimentary rides through Nashville on the Nashville Express, Breakfast with Santa at the Brown County Inn, and a special showing of Disney’s “Polar Express” at the Playhouse are all a part of this holiday weekend.

Two ticketed activities are planned by the Brown County Community Foundation to boost your Christmas spirit.
“Holiday Nibbles and ’Nogs” will take place on the evenings of Friday, December 5 and Saturday, December 6 from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Adult ticket holders (must be 21) will get a map from the Brown County Community Foundation Office that identifies participating merchants, restaurants, pubs, and wineries that will offer you a nibble or a ’nog while wandering the village streets.

Not to forget families and children for whom the Christmas season is extra special, there is “Stuff a Stocking,” a self-guided morning and afternoon of fun on Saturday, December 6 from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Each ticket holding child will receive a commemorative stocking that entitles them, with an accompanying adult, to walk the village and ride the Nashville Express to visit participating merchants for a stocking stuffers.

Participants in both events will be eligible for a drawing at the conclusion of the event. Winners do not have to be present for the drawing.

Tickets for both “Holiday Nibbles and ’Nogs” and “Stuff a Stocking” can be purchased on line at <BCCFin.org> or downtown Nashville at the Brown County Playhouse. Advance tickets purchased prior to November 30 are $20 for “Holiday Nibbles and ‘Nogs” and $10 for “Stuff a Stocking.” After November 30 tickets costs are $25 and $12 respectively. In addition, for the price of a ticket, promotional discounts will be available for lodging to those who want to treat themselves to a special holiday week end.
