MANSFIELD, OH (November 26, 2022)  Christmas at Kingwood opens Saturday, November 26 and runs through Friday, December 30 and is open daily every Tuesday through Sunday, 4 – 9pm. Kingwood will again be featured on the Ohio Holiday Lights Trail.

Christmas at Kingwood continues to deck the halls of Mr. King’s former home in timeless elegance, including the tradition of the breathtaking 18-foot foyer tree. Rooms and hallways are expertly decorated by volunteers and staff and music by local performers will provide the backdrop for the mansion tour.

Christmas at Kingwood is a walking tour experience and has grown to include outdoor lighting displays that allow guests to stroll glowing pathways through the beautiful garden estate while discovering unexpected features and delightful vistas. Hundreds of simple, yet striking, string light trees that range from 2-feet to 28-feet high illuminate the grounds with vibrant color.  Nearly seven linear miles of lights set the gardens aglow including a new area in the Woodland Garden.
