Village of Lights – Mt. Vernon, Missouri Two nights of viewing beautiful Christmas decorations and participating in the Tour of Homes.
The Chamber of Commerce Village of Lights festival began in 1991. This is the kick-off to the Christmas Season and is held the Saturday and Sunday following Thanksgiving. It begins with a Holiday Homes Tour, which consists of approximately 5-6 homes that open their doors to share their special seasonal decor. Tickets are $5.00 in advance and $7.00 the day of the tour. Proceeds from the tours have been spent in recent years to purchase lights to illuminate the Historic Lawrence County Courthouse located in the center of the town square.
Throughout the day on Saturday there are various activities which include carriage rides, entertainment, Christmas parade, sing-a-long, awards, and to top off the evening, the lighting ceremony of the Courthouse and businesses throughout the town.
