Tomball Museum Center Candlelight Tours

The Tomball Museum Center’s annual Candlelight Tours offer a quieter kind of holiday magic, inviting guests to walk the historic grounds by lamplight and Christmas lights. Families and history buffs wander from building to building, listening to choirs, sipping wassail, and peeking into decorated rooms that recall Tomball’s past.

It’s a free, come-and-go event that has become a tradition for many local families, often paired with other Old Town Tomball festivities the same weekend.
