Local planning guide

Christmas in Hattiesburg: lights, markets, and holiday shows

Happens.city gathers Christmas and holiday events from local venue, community, church, and ticket calendars across Hattiesburg, MS — light displays, markets, tree lightings, Santa meet-and-greets, and Nutcracker performances, all with dates and ticket links.

Lights and markets

Drive-through and walkable light displays, holiday markets, and tree lightings are grouped with dates, hours, and locations so you can build a full evening.

For the family

Santa visits, children's shows, and all-ages events are kept distinct from 21+ holiday parties, so the plan fits who you're bringing.

Book the ticketed shows early

Nutcracker and holiday concerts sell out. Listings link to official ticket sources so you can lock in before they're gone.
