Christmastown

Tuscola's Old Fashioned Christmas

Step into the past and enjoy a great old-fashioned Christmas in Tuscola. 

We've got  fun events that will make your 2009 Christmas memorable.

Enjoy the lighted parade down Tuscola's Main Street, shop for unique gifts at the Vendor Faire, or see characters from Charles Dicken's Christmas Carol stroll the streets of Tuscola during the Dickens Walk....

Or, you might want to consider having dinner with the King and his court at the Madrigal Dinner, a musical and theatrical "eatertainment" that will have you believing you're in Rennaissance England.....

Take time out to remember loved ones at the Holiday Remembrance Service or put your endurance to the test in the Santa Chase.....

Partake in the ancient tradition of lighting the Yule Log or test your talent at the Christmas Karaoke Contest. 

There's something for everyone in Tuscola at Christmastown 2009!
