Old Worthington’s post-Thanksgiving Holiday Open House runs noon to 5 p.m. on Sunday, November 29, 2026, then the Village Green tree lights at 5.
Old Worthington hosts its annual Holiday Open House on Sunday, November 29, 2026—the Sunday after Thanksgiving—from noon until 5:00 p.m. along High Street. Expect horse-drawn carriage rides, train rides, live music, and a Santa photo stop woven through the historic block rather than parked in a single tent.
When the open house winds down, the city’s Tree Illumination starts around 5:00 p.m. on the southeast Village Green. That handoff keeps families downtown for the full afternoon instead of sprinting home between errands and the light cue.
Start at 671 High Street for the Partnership map, wander the shop windows while the carriages roll, then hold a spot on the green before the tree flips on.
