Las Posadas 2011: Saturday, December 3

uring the day from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. the normal Saturday Festival takes place.

Later that evening at 6:00 p.m. a beautiful re-enactment of the Spanish tradition of Las Posadas finds Mary and Joseph looking for shelter as they process down South Main Street with thousands of visitors carrying luminaries and singing carols. The procession begins at the corner of S. Main Street and Boone’s Lick Road.

Las Posadas culminates along the riverfront in Frontier Park with a re-telling of the Christmas Story in narrative and song, a live nativity scene, and carols sung around the Yule Log bonfire.
