Your Ultimate Guide to Christmas in Olive Branch

Jay Nichols, Communications Director for Olive Branch, joined KWAM’s “Wake Up Memphis” and previewed the city’s upcoming slate of Christmas events.

Kicking off the holiday festivities, Olive Branch is hosting a Christmas tree-lighting celebration on Nov. 30, which will feature musical guests and activities for the whole family. If weather doesn’t cooperate, the event will be rescheduled to the following Thursday.

“We’ve got carriage rides that are supposed to take place,” Nichols said.

Next week, the city will also host its annual Christmas parade.

“Santa will also be taking pictures with kids before the parade even starts,” Nichols said.

You can also visit the Light Garden until Jan. 1, which is a mind-blowing light display featuring themed nights and fun for the entire family.
