Merry-N County Christmas, a drive-through lighted holiday display at Marion County Park continues this weekend. There are over 65 lighted displays this year.

Sponsored by THRIVE Knoxville and the Marion County Historical Society, the Merry-N County Christmas route has expanded this year due to increased displays, so visitors will see many changes as they wind through Marion County Park.

Merry-N County Christmas is open every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday through December 24, from 6-8 p.m. each night. Event admission is a free will donation with the money going to help cover operating costs as well as benefit the Marion County Historical Society and THRIVE Knoxville.

Tyler Christian tells KNIA/KRLS News that THRIVE is a non-profit that promotes positive things going on in the community. The Marion County Historical Society and Historical Village have joined forces in the third year of the event. The Historical Village includes the eight buildings at the park, along with the museum, according to Dan Carlson.

While touring the park, tune in to 95.3 FM KNIA to enjoy Christmas music.
