People are just crashing the sidewalk to get a glimpse of our property 😂. Thankful to the Normal Police Department and the Town of Normal for assisting in the removal of this oversized semi from the front of the property. It's been an eventful couple of days!

We tried so hard, and have been removing snow all morning, but due to the parking bans surrounding our properties and some concerns regarding city snow removal, we have to reschedule Christmas at the Mansions to Saturday, December 27 from 2-7pm.

Please note that we will not be issuing refunds for tickets. If you are unable to attend the new date you are welcome to gift your paper tickets to others, or may transfer your online tickets to someone else by emailing us at [email protected].

If you need new or additional tickets for the new date, those are available again at https://daviddavismansion.org/catm-tickets. Thank you!

Christmas at the Mansions is still happening tomorrow night. It is absolutely our intention to have the event and we are NOT planning on cancelling it unless absolutely necessary. We will be removing snow throughout the day and doing our best to keep the grounds clean for everyone’s arrival. See you tomorrow!
