Downtown Franklin, TN Events – Christmas Tree Lighting on the Square
The downtown Franklin Christmas Tree Lighting on the Square is a fun way for the entire family to kick-off the holiday season. The city partners with sponsors and Spring Tree Media group to bring a multi-media extravaganza to the historic downtwon square. The event features children’s choirs from local middle schools, and high schools. In 2015 award winning singer Matthew West performed and there was a surprise appearance from the Opryland Grinch. Hundreds gathered on the square to watch lights and movie clips projected on the historic buildings on the square, and also a dancing light show around the square. A fan favorite was the free photos with Santa on the steps of the historic courthouse.
