Families have the chance to walk the streets of Bethlehem this week as A Babe Is Born – Live Nativity returns for a four-night run, Dec. 3–6, from 6 to 9 p.m. The outdoor production, located at 1174 S. 1700 W. in Lehi, recreates the Nativity story’s setting through detailed sets, costumed actors, and live animals.
Instead of a traditional seated performance, visitors will walk through a series of scenes depicting Mary and Joseph’s journey and the events surrounding the birth of Christ. The experience is designed to be family-friendly, with no age restrictions. There will be opportunities for children to briefly interact with animals, including goats, sheep, and rabbits. Organizers note that parts of the experience are sheltered; however, guests should prepare for winter temperatures.
Tickets are $12 for adults and $8 for children, and time-slot reservations are available through Eventbrite. Attendance is expected to increase this year, and families are encouraged to reserve tickets early.
A portion of the event’s proceeds will support refugee assistance efforts, and production will provide opportunities for local refugees to participate. Organizers aim to create a meaningful holiday experience while also addressing ongoing humanitarian needs.
A Babe Is Born – Live Nativity runs Dec. 3–6, from 6–9 p.m. Full schedule and tickets are available on Eventbrite under A Babe Is Born – Live Nativity.
