A Carillon Christmas

Updated: Nov 26, 2021

Nov. 23 - Dec. 30, 2021

DAYTON, Ohio—November 23, 2021, the sixth annual A Carillon Christmas returns to Carillon Historical Park—home of the Wright Brothers National Museum and Carillon Brewing Co., the nation's only fully operational production brewery in a museum.

Towering at 200 feet, featuring 20,000 bulbs, the breathtaking Carillon Tree of Light—Ohio’s largest musical tree of light—is not only the centerpiece of A Carillon Christmas but also an undeniable symbol of Christmas in the Miami Valley.


Featuring Santa’s Toy Shop, Carousel and Midnight Express Train Rides, Candy Cane Slopes, Holiday Storytelling, Letters to Santa, holiday shopping and treats, and countless yuletide attractions, A Carillon Christmas transforms the Park into a winter wonderland of holiday cheer. Carillon Historical Park at night, decked out with over 15 miles of Christmas lights, is truly a sight to see.


A Carillon Christmas is open every night from November 23rd to December 30th from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm, Sunday through Thursday, and 5:00 pm to 10:00 pm, Friday and Saturday. A Carillon Christmas and all Dayton History sites are closed Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day.


Regular Park admission fees apply to experience A Carillon Christmas. The Carillon Tree of Light is free to the public but we encourage attendees to join us inside the Park where the festivities continue. All proceeds support Dayton History in its mission to inspire generations by connecting them with the unique people, places, and events that changed Dayton and the world.
