Magnolia Winterfest
December 7, 2024
Afternoon to Evening
Magnolia Village
The holiday season starts in style with the annual Magnolia Winterfest on Saturday, December 7th. The day kicks off with a special Holiday Farmers Market. W. McGraw St. will be closed throughout Winterfest to allow games, selfie photo spots, music, food, activities, and fun!
During the daytime, businesses in Magnolia Village will offer an array of holiday-themed arts and crafts activities for the kids, and traditional favorites such as photos with Santa, the holiday tree lighting event, and holiday caroling add to the festive feel.
Evening festivities include the ‘Jingle Bell Cruise’ and classic car show, after-hours shopping at local boutiques and stores, live music, and unique seasonal entertainment. Delicious bites and beverages can be enjoyed at Magnolia Village restaurants and venues, along with a visit late afternoon from the Dick’s Drive-In food truck!
In addition, Magnolia Lutheran Church will be hosting a Winterfest Marketplace fundraiser for the Lloyd W. Nordstrom Guild supporting Seattle Children’s Hospital.
