Come celebrate Christmas with friends and family at the Netherland Inn and Boatyard National Historic Site, just as Margaret and Richard Netherland celebrated over 200 years ago- dating all the way back to 1818. This festive event will feature beautiful decorations, warm cider, special treats, and lively music.
Entertainment and ticket sales TBD, so be sure to check back.
NO early ticket sales are available and reservations are not required. Parking is available in the lot behind the Inn or in the grass lot on Lilac Street.
Make plans now to attend this wonderful holiday tradition to enjoy the beautiful 1818 period all-natural decorations, designed and provided by Kingsport garden clubs and Netherland Inn volunteers; to partake of special treats; to hear seasonal music, and visit with living history characters from Kingsport’s past.The Netherland Inn Association is an all- volunteer organization. All proceeds from this and other events go toward maintenance and restoration of the Netherland Inn and Boatyard, as well as additions to the historic campus. In addition to being the birthplace of Kingsport, the Netherland Inn and Boatyard is the only site of the National Register of Historic Sites to have been both a boatyard and a stagecoach stop.
