Live Nativities and Drive-Thru Nativity Events in Lakeland + Polk County

Looking for a live nativity scene to visit this holiday season? While you can always set up an indoor or outdoor nativity scene at home {I have a Willow Tree set that I adore}, a live nativity reenactment can really make the true meaning of the Christmas story come alive for your children. Live nativities typically include various scenes including live animals, angel(s), Wise Men, manger scenes, Mary and Joseph with Baby Jesus, and other live characters telling the story of the birth of Jesus.

There are a variety of local events including outdoor nativity scenes you can walk through, as well as drive-thru nativities. Combine a live Christmas Nativity with a trip to see some of the best Christmas lights in Lakeland + Polk County for a memorable and FREE family night out.
