Tennessee’s Home for the Holidays

Bill and I are excited for the eighth annual Tennessee’s Home for the Holidays open house event at the Tennessee Residence held in December. It is such a special opportunity to live in our state’s beautiful executive residence, and we look forward to sharing it with you in this unique way every year. In this last year of Bill's time in office, we are especially proud to showcase some of the places that make Tennessee a fantastic place to visit and an even better place to live. 

This year, the holiday decorations will feature'Tennessee Tourism.' The trees and mantels will showcase memorabilia and articles depicting the many attractions, events and hallmarks that draw hundreds of millions of visitors to our state each year and provide education, entertainment, hospitality and beauty to visitors and locals alike.  As our second largest industry in Tennessee, tourism continues to break records - providing incredible economic impact, bringing jobs to our citizens and creating a memorable experience for visitors from around the world. The holiday decor will highlight the unique experiences that many of Tennessee's beloved attractions and destinations bring to all who travel to and through Tennessee. 

Bill and I hope that you and your friends and family will visit the Tennessee Residence for this year’s Tennessee’s Home for the Holidays, and we thank you for helping us bring holiday cheer to Tennessee’s Home!

— Crissy Haslam, First Lady of Tennessee
