The fifth annual Merry-N-County Christmas drive-thru light display presented by THRIVE Knoxville and the Marion County Historical Society will continue tonight
The event takes place every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 6:00-8:00 pm until December 24th at Marion County Park. The light display is made possible by different community businesses, groups, and organizations, who create displays along the drive-thru path. Those driving through the light display can tune into 95.3 KNIA to listen to Christmas music while enjoying the displays. Tyler Christian, who is on the Merry-N County Christmas Steering Committee, encourages everyone to come and enjoy the annual event.
“We have nearly 90 displays. Most of these are not your commercial cookie cutter displays. There are a lot of very unique and creative displays created by the Marion County community. There is an over mile route that is jam packed with Christmas lights that the whole family can enjoy.”
Merry-N-County Christmas is free admission and those in attendance can meet and take photos with Santa Claus or deliver letters to Santa at the mailbox at the park.
