The Season at Stanley
The holidays at Stanley aren’t about one big display. They’re about the small, warm moments: a cocoa by the fire pit, a new Santa every weekend, a gift picked out by the person who made it. Whatever you celebrate, and however far you are from family, there’s a seat by the fire for you.
The season kicks off on Small Business Saturday, Nov 28, and wraps with a kid-sized countdown on Dec 31. Here’s everything on the calendar.
All season long
Here every day of the season. No tickets or timing needed.
Après on the West Patio
Fire pits, blankets, cocoa, music and a pop-up bar hosted by Cheluna Brewing Co. [add days/times] More
The Living Room
A cozy lounge by the fireplace, with a photo wall of our tenants’ own holiday traditions. Grab food or a drink from one of our local restaurants and make yourself at home in our home.
