Signature events include Candy Canes & Cocktails (Nov. 12), Light up the Park (Nov. 14), Kris Kringle Market (Nov. 20), Christmas in the Street (Nov. 29), and Fire and Ice (Dec. 31).

Residents can participate in the Business Passport Contest by visiting shops in at least two towns to win a $100 gift card. Other contests include Candy Canes & Cocktails Passport, Shop and Win in Clifford and Palmerston, and the Bright Lights and Festive Nights Check-in to Win Contest.
