If you have some time this weekend, make sure you get yourself downtown Rockwell Park.

For the 37th year, Mrs. Rockwell’s Pavilion at Rockwell Park is being transformed into Winter Wonderland, offering tons of holiday fun for local families.

December 9th from 6 to 7:30 p.m., as well as, Saturday, December 10th and Sunday, December 11th from noon to 4 p.m.

Kids will have an opportunity to visit with Santa Claus, and explore multiple winter holidays celebrated right in our city.

“Bristol residents celebrate a number of holidays between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day,” explains Sarah Larson, Deputy Superintendent of Parks, Recreation, Youth and Community Services. “We are excited to be able to showcase a small number of those holidays including Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa and the Winter Solstice at this year’s event.”
