About The Village
What is The Village
The Village is a Christmas experience unlike any other — an artistic and heartwarming celebration created by Lovely Church to bring the spirit of hope to our community.
Inside The Olio in Peabody, a full Victorian-inspired village comes to life — with handcrafted houses, live music, storytelling, lights, and flavors that capture the beauty of Christmas.
It’s a place to pause, to wonder, and to feel connected again.
Whether you come with family, friends, or on your own, The Village invites you to rediscover joy, kindness, and the true light of the season.
Every ticket, every smile, and every shared moment helps support local outreach and social projects that bring hope beyond these walls.

At its core, The Village is about more than celebration — it’s about compassion.
Every ticket, every treat, every donation contributes to helping families in need.

WHAT MOVES OUR HEART?
We believe we’re called to live beyond ourselves. And that also means loving our neighbor and helping those in need.
In support of Citizens Inn, we’ll be collecting personal care items to help families in need.
If you’d like to be part of this movement, it will be a great joy! Feel free to bring your donation on the day you come to The Village.
