Hand-crafted gifts

Holly Days
Get in the Christmas spirit with an old-fashioned winter weekend in Egg Harbor. Start with Breakfast with Santa, partake in a children’s elf hunt, and enjoy a horse-drawn wagon ride. The weekend is filled with tons of family-friendly activities, as well as wine tasting for adults. Visit the event page for more details.

Live music
While summer may be considered high season for live music around the county, there are still plenty of opportunities to catch a show at Door Community Auditorium (DCA), or listen to a local band with friends. In the mood for holiday music? Don’t miss the Rockapellas, singing several seasonal favorites at the DCA, and Play It Forward for the Holidays to hear songs from Door County’s favorite performers.
