Here in Southeast Indiana, we’re rolling out the welcome mat with a variety of fun holiday celebrations planned for this first weekend of December.
Lawrenceburg’s Winter Wonderland Celebration
Visit Downtown Lawrenceburg for an afternoon of holiday cheer, with activities scheduled this Saturday, December 6 from 11am-2pm. In addition to the Holiday Parade & PAWS Pet Parade starting at 12:30pm on the streets of downtown, visitors can enjoy lots of holiday fun in Civic Park, including kids’ activities, Mr. & Mrs. Claus, live ice carving, elves on stilts and balloon twisting, face painting and caricatures, cookies and hot chocolate, and more.
Ice Skating in Downtown Lawrenceburg
Strap on your skates and hit the ice! Downtown Lawrenceburg’s Winter Wonderland Ice Rink has moved to a new location this year and is now open for the season. Located at the Civic Park Pavilion on 127 Short St., the covered rink offers a low admission fee (including skate rental) of $8 for adults, $6 for children 12-and-under, and free for children under 4. The rink will be open this Saturday and Sunday from 12-8pm, weather permitting.
Light Up Newtown Park Kickoff & Tree Lighting
A new holiday tradition is waiting for you in Lawrenceburg! Just in time for the season, Light Up Newtown Park features hundreds of lit Christmas trees adorning the historic park along U.S. 50. Organized by the Dearborn County Historical Society, this first-annual event will kick off with a special lighting ceremony planned for December 6 starting at 5pm. Come see the park filled with trees, each beautifully-decorated and sponsored by families, organizations, businesses, and not-for-profit organizations located throughout the community.
