'Today' Show Visiting Stockbridge
STOCKBRIDGE, Mass. — Look out for lights and cameras as NBC's "Today" show previews the famed Stockbridge Main Street at Christmas event.
The morning show will be at the Red Lion Inn on Friday morning as part of its "Merriest Main Street" holiday feature. According to the Stockbridge Chamber of Commerce, this visit kicks off the third season of the series.
Stockbridge Main Street at Christmas is inspired by Norman Rockwell's 1967 "Home for Christmas." The painting, at the Normal Rockwell Museum, shows the south side of Main Street from the 250-year-old Red Lion Inn to the library.
It's a snowy day with Christmas decorations, the shops are lighted and people are shopping. The inn is dark, as it was operated seasonally at the time.
Every year, the scene is recreated along that part of the street — which is not much changed since 1967. The Red Lion Inn won't be dark but decorated for the holidays.
The recreation is set for Sunday this year from noon to 2, but events celebrating the holiday season start on Friday.
The chamber is inviting residents and visitors to come to the front of the inn in festive attire for the morning show.
