Town of Windsor Holiday Celebration

Expand to see the parent tip

Windsor’s long-running Holiday Celebration fills the Town Green with a tree lighting, a Holiday World Market and Posada along Market Street, and stage performances by young dancers and musicians from Windsor schools, including Ballet Folklorico at 6 pm in Huerta Gym.

Kids can decorate cookies inside Huerta Gym, try the crafts in the children’s tent in the gym parking lot, and drop a letter in Santa’s mailbox at the center of the Green. It is all outdoors apart from the gym, so dress for the weather.

Parent tip: Head to cookie decorating early, before the 6 pm performances draw the crowd into Huerta Gym.

Tree groveFree

Charlie Brown Christmas Tree Grove

Expand to see the parent tip

Every December a grove of small, scraggly Charlie Brown style Christmas trees pops up on the Windsor Town Green, decorated and left up for the whole month for families to wander through.

The nonprofit People 4 Parks Windsor runs the grove with the Town of Windsor, and it opens the night of the Holiday Celebration, so you can see it lit for the first time on December 3.

Parent tip: Come back on a quiet weekday afternoon for photos without the opening-night crowds, then grab a hot drink on Market Street.

Plan your December

When each Windsor Christmas event for kids happens

Go to the Holiday Celebration on December 3 for the lighting and crafts, then return to the Town Green any day through New Year’s to stroll the Charlie Brown tree grove.

Looking further afield? Our California Christmas events for kids guide lists every confirmed event in the state, and we have city guides for Santa Rosa, Rohnert Park, Napa and American Canyon. The national search sorts every event by distance from your town.

A story for the drive home

A morning with Santa or an evening of holiday stories tends to end the same way: tired kids, a long drive and one more book before bed. Our picture book follows Rally the corgi on his first train ride to see his grand-paw-rents, and every page is painted by hand. If your family is spending December missing someone, it was written for that too. For the car, print our free corgi and train coloring pages.
