Twenty Years and Still Glittering

Sun City Holiday Home Tour

Each year, the Sun City Texas Holiday Home Tour dazzles the community with homes decorated in magnificent holiday splendor. Whether in celebration of Christmas,  Hanukkah, or Kwanzaa, every nook and cranny flaunts the wow factor—and all for the low price of $10.

PLACES WITH PURPOSE

This event is a labor of love and Kiwanis is proud that the thousands of dollars they donate to children’s programs each year stay in Williamson County. When not working on the tour of homes, members also become “grandparents” to community children and sit in their own roped off sections at school, sporting, and graduation events and autograph the books read and donated to children, as part of their literacy program. 

Preparations for each event begin right after the previous tour. Members of the committee start by visiting and reviewing homes that have been recommended or volunteered. Some artistic homeowners choose to decorate their homes on their own, but some work with decorators. Most often, decorators have previously collaborated with homeowners and are happy to show off their talent.

During the event, visitors receive a program, designed by volunteers, with detailed home descriptions, including certain “don’t miss” areas and items. At the homes, docents welcome guests and provide security. After the event, owners and volunteers spend a week gingerly tearing down and then… it’s time to start planning again. 

2021 EVENT

New this year, a group of dedicated glampers called Sisters on the Fly will be gathering their travel trailers, some of them vintage, to be part of 

the tour of homes. The trailers will be decorated in a variety of themes for the holidays and parked at Legacy Park on Del Webb Blvd. The Sisters hail from Sun City and elsewhere between Georgetown and Austin, and they enjoy taking their upscale style on the road together for fun and philanthropy. 

A map of the five homes will be on the ticket and signs will be posted. 

Each ticket ($10 advance) allows unlimited visits and tour hours are:

  • Friday, December 3, 4–6pm
