Alpine Advent Transforms Town Square
This winter, Waterville Valley’s Town Square will transform into an authentic Holiday Market with the magic of Alpine Advent: a brand-new holiday tradition inspired by the European-inspired Christmas markets! From November 28 through December 31, visitors can stroll among twinkling lights and rustic wooden chalets filled with the sights, scents, and sounds of the season.
Set against the backdrop of Waterville Valley’s surrounding peaks and festive winter lights, Alpine Advent will elevate Town Square into a festive village showcasing local artistry, and lots of holiday tradition. Shop handcrafted goods from New Hampshire’s finest artisans, savor seasonal treats, and warm up with hot cocoa or glühwein (mulled wine) as you explore each of the twelve wooden chalets filled with holiday traditions. From handcrafted ornaments that tell New England stories to alpine-inspired cuisine that warms you from the inside out, every purchase supports local creators who pour their hearts into their craft.
Alpine Advent operates on weekends in late November and December, and throughout Christmas Vacation Week!
