Looking for a twinkling town, adorned with Christmas decorations for a special, winter weekend getaway? Look no further than historic, quaint Henderson, Kentucky. Located on the mighty Ohio River in the western region of the state, we do Christmas décor just like a classy, down-to-earth river town should – very well. Starting around November 25 and continuing through the new year, vast displays of holiday décor abound throughout our friendly, festive town.
Pack up the kiddos, mix up the cocoa (or pick up some at one of our local eateries) and load up the minivan for a holiday excursion to remember. Or, if you’re already an “empty nester,” phone a friend and make a plan to visit our hospitable, historic John James Audubon river town during the holidays – there’s plenty of things to do, see and experience.
