266.2. Nashville Tree Lighting & Christmas Parade


The 59th Annual Nashville Christmas Parade is this Friday, December 2, at 7pm. And Nashville’s own Vince Gill will serve as Grand Marshal. The whole thing kicks off with the lighting of the tree at 6:30pm at Public Square. Mayor Karl Dean hosts the event with guests Vince Gill and Titans QB Matt Hasselbeck & wife Sarah. More than 5,000 lights will be turned on on the 40-foot tree. Sarah Darling, Vince Gill’s daughter Jenny and a barbershop quartet will be there to since a few tunes. Then the parade steps off at LP Field at 7pm and makes its way across the river, down 2nd Avenue and down Broadway. Floats, music and lots of people waving.
