Starting with the annual lighting of the largest area nativity scene, overlooking Lake Taneycomo at dusk and culminating with a community gathering like no other.

If you’ve ever asked yourself the question, “What happened to Christmas?”- this inspirational community event is the answer you’ve been seeking. The Branson community gathers on this special day to set aside our individual aspirations and celebrate the true meaning of the Christmas season. It is our chance to stop and reflect on the beauty of the Christmas story that still inspires people today. On this special night, no one is in the limelight and no organization is promoted, only an overwhelming outpouring of community and celebration as we come together to honor the story of Christmas.
