Residents and visitors of Downtown Kingsport are gearing up for a festive display, as the collective churches of Church Circle are set to bring their annual "Come to Bethlehem: A Living Nativity" event to life on Sunday from 6 pm to 8 pm. This cherished community spectacle promises an immersive experience, complemented by an array of road closures to accommodate the evening's happenings.
For those planning to attend, take note: the only way to drive into the event will be via East Sullivan Street from the intersection of East Sullivan and Center Streets, roadways funneling into the event will be inaccessible, ensuring a seamless experience for those driving and strolling by, and participants can find parking behind any of Church Circle's places of worship, they can then take to the pedestrian path whose entrance graces East Sullivan Street.
Expect the travel landscape to transform well ahead of the event's commencement, with road closures and traffic detours set to be implemented by 3 pm and slated to remain in effect for the entirety of the evening. Those threading through the city's veins by vehicle or on foot will encounter clear directional signage, guiding them to the event's entrance and ensuring an orderly flow amidst the Yuletide cheer.
For more information, inquiries should be directed to First Baptist Church at 423-247-4122, where details, including a route and road closure map, are available. Potential attendees are also encouraged to visit the official announcement on the City of Kingsport website.
