Holiday Events

There’s just something magical about Christmas in Ruston! With beautifully decorated downtown shops, streets lined with twinkling lights, and holiday cheer in the air, Ruston elicits all those cozy feelings of being home for the holidays.

Downtown Ruston kicks off the festivities in November with Holiday Open House and Kickoff to Christmas, featuring a tree-lighting ceremony, a visit from Santa, shopping specials at local stores, and more fun for the entire family. December is always packed with holiday cheer in Lincoln Parish. From theatre performances, and Lincoln Lights Up the Pines, to the Ruston Christmas Parade.

With so much happening during this season, we wanted to bring you a collection of the ways to celebrate the holidays with your friends and family in Ruston & Lincoln Parish.
