What is the Kettering Holiday at Home Celebration?

Holiday at Home is a Labor Day weekend celebration for the family. It is packed with exciting, fun, safe, family-oriented activities designed to encourage people to stay at home and enjoy their family and friends over Labor Day weekend. It has grown in the past 60 plus years from a small, neighborhood event into one of Ohio’s largest Labor Day weekend events.

Events include:

  • The Miami Valley’s Largest Parade. Last year over 75,000 people lined Far Hills Avenue in Kettering on Labor Day morning to watch the parade. This ranks as one of the highlights of the weekend.
  • Scholarship Contest This event recognizes 3 to 4 young people from the south suburbs. Contestants win scholarship money and are judged on scholastic achievement, and community service participation. The winners will attend all the weekend activities.
  • Gala. Scholarship winners are officially recognized at this event and scholarships are handed out. We can accomodate up to 150 people. If you are interested in attending, fill out the interest form and we will send you more information!
  • Auto Show. This invitational event draws collectors from around the tri-state area. They come to compete in what has become a must for competitors and spectators alike. We have around 50 entrants as well as 6-8 feature cars in the Holiday at Home Auto Show.
  • Activities on Lincoln Park Commons. Each year thousands of people fill the Lincoln Park commons area to take in over 120 arts and crafts displays, children’s activities, over 30 food vendors, live entertainment and much more. 
  • 5K Run. Nearly 400 runners participated in last year’s event. The event has proven so popular that we added an “Under- 10-years-old” category to accommodate the interests of even our youngest runners!
