I have lived in Branson since 1994, and I couldn’t think of a better place to call home. I love welcoming visitors to Branson—whether it’s their first time here or they consider Branson a second home.

 

Christmastime in Branson is a true delight for families of all ages. The town comes alive with a sense of wonder as millions of twinkling lights transform the streets into a dazzling display of color. Kids and adults alike can enjoy festive parades, visit Santa Claus at his charming workshop, and experience the magic of Silver Dollar City’s “An Old Time Christmas,” where the park is adorned with over 6.5 million lights. The sounds of carolers and holiday shows fill the air, while cozy cabins and delightful holiday-themed attractions offer the perfect backdrop for family bonding. In Branson, the spirit of togetherness and the joy of the season can be felt around every corner, making it a cherished destination for families looking to create lasting holiday memories. Be sure and give yourself time to see dozens of beautifully decorated landmark Christmas trees that are all over 28 feet tall, and are on display throughout our wonderful community during Ozark Mountain Christmas!
