Wassail Weekend

It’s the most wonderful time of the year in Woodstock. Wassail Weekend, the town’s signature Christmas festival, features three days of festive fun for all ages. If you’re into live music, there are performances around town by Prydein and the Yale Alley Cats, as well as a Messiah sing-along at Our Lady of the Snows. If craft fairs or carriage rides are more your thing, you’re set. If you love historical merriment, head to Billings Farm & Museum. For the kids, there are scavenger hunts, ornament making, cookies with Santa, seasonal story times and a No Strings Marionette tale. The centerpiece of it all is the Annual Wassail Parade, featuring horses, a cappella carols and a tree lighting.
