Branson Christmas Sightseeing
Christmas is an extremely popular time to be in Branson, and with the number of shows and fairs at this time, it's easy to see why. Almost every theater in Branson presents a Christmas themed show for visitors during the holiday season, from the first week of November until New Year's. See Andy Williams in his famous Christmas show along with Mickey Gilley with his talented cast of singers, musicians and comedian Joey Riley. The Branson Variety Theater presents The Osmands, starring in the Spirit of Christmas along with A Brenda Lee Christmas each year. Comedians Jim Stafford, Ray Stevens, Jim Owen and Yakov Smirnoff add Christmas cheer and humor to their regular comedy, music and dance shows. Don't forget to stop by the outlet malls for great discounts on all of your holiday gifts.

Music shows are a Branson staple year round, and the holidays are no exception. You are sure to hear carols and hymns, both new and old, all around you during the Christmas season. New additions to the Branson holiday music scene are The Mannheim Steamroller Orchestra and Broadway's Spirit of Christmas. See old favorites like the Gospel great Dino in his classic Christmas Spectacular, along with the legendary Bobby Vinton. Shoji Tabuchi, renowned violinist, also presents a Christmas Show in Branson.

Enjoy Silver Dollar City's presentation of The Nativity, along with their musical production of A Christmas Carol. Listen to strolling carolers in period costumes, see a seventeen foot interactive Christmas tree, along with a five story special effects Christmas tree all at Silver Dollar City.

The Shepherd of the Hills Outdoor Theater presents Christmas on the Trail, where you can enjoy an authentic cowboy meal served from a chuck wagon and sing carols around the fire, visit with Santa and more. Light displays are also an important part of Christmas in Branson. While the entire town lights up during the holiday season, there are areas where the city is particularly bright. The Branson Area Festival of Lights features over 200 displays, while travelers can go through a 240-foot hollywreath tunnel at the Port of Lights. Old Time Christmas features literally millions of lights, along with a North Pole open house.

From the creators of 'Cirque' comes the 'Christmas Dreams' show, a dazzling production which tells the story of Christmas as seen by tree ornaments which come to life, including Charles Dickens, Santa, a Christmas Angel and an Ice Queen. Beautiful costumes, music and special effects have helped to make this show a Branson favorite. Six mini-stages wrapped like gift boxes in the audience showcase some of the production's main ornaments. Finally, don't forget to stop by the outlet malls for some of the best discounts on your holiday gifts.
