A holiday evening made magical

A Candlelight Christmas Evenings visit takes you back in time to the very first Christmas at Biltmore House in 1895. Gently illuminated by candles, the air filled with the scent of fresh pine, the sound of crackling fireplaces, and a feeling of childlike wonder, the house is a holiday vision made real.
