It’s this weekend!!! ✨✨✨✨ This is the most special, precious, emotional event. Each year we gather over 150 cast and 150 choir for a LIVE nativity open (and free!) to the public in Knoxville. If you live near Knoxville, please consider this the most arms-wide-open welcome and invitation to attend this year! This is our 56th Annual Pageant and I’m beyond giddy to get started with the production! I’d LOVE to see you there!! This is a completely kid-friendly event and I’d love it if you brought your whole family - grab your neighbors too! This gospel-centered depiction of Christ’s birth will move you to tears — I cry every time, even after seeing it performed & practiced a dozen times in one weekend! You can grab all details at KnoxvilleNativity.com but also: Saturday, December 14 @ 3pm Sunday, December, 15 @ 3pm Monday, December, 16 @ 7pm Knoxville Civic Coliseum 500 Howard Baker Jr. Ave. Knoxville, TN 37915 The one-hour performance starts in darkness; please arrive early to avoid searching for seats in the dark. Special music will begin 30 minutes prior to the pageant. Children of all ages are welcome. The Nativity Pageant is presented as a gift to the community and is FREE OF CHARGE. Seating is open. Parking is $5 (card only). (fb)

One of the fun things about prepping for the pageant is that we provide food for all of our cast and volunteers throughout the week and weekend. Not only that, we have tons of workers here at the Colosseum helping make everything get started. From putting sets together, spreading mulch, setting up the sound and lighting… It’s a lot of mouths to feed! And we feed them all when we’re here — mostly through donations, too! Today’s lunch was graciously provided by @brownbaghardinvalley ✨ (fb)
