Loveland Ohio - December 14th 2024 3:00pm-8:00pm: The Little Miami River Chamber Alliance is pleased to share that the City of Loveland will once again be transformed into a beautiful wonderland for the Christmas holiday.

On December 14th visitors can enjoy horse carriage rides a children's train ride and a trolley ride around town. At the heart of the event you will find the main stage with live entertainment all evening and Christmas shopping at the Holiday Market with over 25 local businesses. Entertainment vendors & shopping can be found in the center of town next to the live nativity scene near Fleet Feet. North Pole magic can be found along Karl Brown Way in various businesses: children can enjoy a craft with Mrs. Claus and a visit with Santa himself! A map of all Christmas in Loveland activities will be available soon.

On our main stage bring your pup along for the best dressed pet costume and parade from Hops & Berry to the main stage. New this year: a beard contest where gentlemen can showcase their best holiday beards! (see stage schedule of events for all main stage entertainment)

The community can enjoy a new area this year called Jingle Bell Junction complete with food trucks 15 additional vendors horse-drawn carriage rides and coffee cocktails for sale. Kids can enjoy free crafts and sing-along to Christmas Carols while waiting to take a magical horse-drawn carriage ride.

CeeCee Collins President of the chamber shared “there will be so many fun activities such as train rides caroling and Santa’s Wonderland just to name a few! We recognized the lines for the carriages can be long so we wanted to provide food shopping and activities for folks in that area that’s where Jingle Bell Junction was born. You also won’t want to miss the all-new Beard Contest! Activities for the entire family while the contest takes place on the main stage. This is such a great event where the businesses want to give back to everyone that has patronized and visited in downtown. They truly appreciate everyone supporting local businesses and hope they will return to enjoy all of the Loveland area. There will be many samplings and give-a-ways for all ages to enjoy!”
