Starting November 3rd in North Carolina, the “Christmas at Biltmore” celebration at the historic Biltmore Estate in Asheville gets underway as one of the most magical holiday experiences you’ll find anywhere in the US! Running through January 10th, 2027, this wonderful holiday tradition dates back to George Vanderbilt’s first Christmas at Biltmore in 1895. Inside America’s largest home, you’ll find over 100 beautifully decorated Christmas trees throughout the estate, thousands of ornaments, fresh evergreen garlands, glowing fireplaces, and room after room filled with Christmas decorations. The centerpiece is a massive 35-foot Fraser fir in the grand Banquet Hall! Visitors can tour the mansion during the day or book the special Candlelight Christmas Evenings, when flickering candles, roaring fireplaces, twinkling lights, and live Christmas music make the experience even more memorable. Outside, a towering 55-foot Christmas tree lights up the front lawn. You can also explore the gardens, see seasonal plants inside the Conservatory, enjoy Christmas lights throughout Antler Hill Village, browse shops, dine at estate restaurants, and enjoy complimentary w**e tastings at the Winery. Evening house tours require separate reservations, so booking ahead is highly recommended!
