Tips & Advice

  • Stay for the light-up of the Town Square, when thousands of Christmas lights come on around the historic Square in downtown Corydon.
  • Come hungry and skip the dinner plans, because food trucks are part of the celebration and you can eat right there on the Square.
  • Bring your gift list, since vendors and the downtown merchants are part of the day and you can tick off some holiday shopping.
