Jingle All the Way…

The holidays officially kick off in Nashville on Friday, December 5th with the 61st Annual Nashville Christmas Parade and Tree Lighting Ceremony. This year grammy-nominated singing legend Brenda Lee, best known for her rendition of “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree,” will be making a guest appearance in the parade. Also slated for guest appearances are Megan Alexander of Inside Edition and singing duo Haley & Michaels. It promises to be a great event. Please visit here for road closures and here for parking.
