The Lincoln Memorial University (LMU) annual Christmas Festival will be Thursday, December 5, 2024. The day of holiday activities kicks off at 10:30 a.m. in Tex Turner Arena and will culminate with a free performance by the Knoxville Symphony Chamber Orchestra (KSCO) at 7 p.m. The traditional Campus Christmas Lighting will take place at 6 p.m

As in past years, LMU will host a countdown and program to celebrate the Christmas lighting of campus at 6 p.m. Those who want to watch will gather in front of the Arena for a brief program that will lead up to the first lighting of the University holiday decorations, including a large light tree in Alumni Park.

This event is free and open to the public.
