Polar bears, snowflakes, and dogsleds abound at “Christmas at Castle Hill,” December 4-6 We’re celebrating 1920s polar exploration with spectacular floral and Christmas decorations and special activities all weekend long.

Gear up like an explorer at our polar dress up station, visit an exhibition on Admiral Byrd’s 1928 expedition, and find that perfect holiday gift at the Castle Hill gift shop or the Harbor Sweets pop-up store.

We’ll kick off the celebrations on Friday, December 4, 5 pm – 9 pm, with acapella singers from The Essex Harmony; magical nighttime lighting; and a cash bar with beer, wine, and our own polar punch.

On Saturday, 10 am – 4 pm, you can watch Fitzy the Snowman carve an ice sculpture in the courtyard, experience a dance performance by Ipswich Moving Company’s Youth Dance Ensemble at 3 pm, and listen to holiday favorites performed by local musicians throughout the day.

On Sunday, 12 pm – 4 pm, the delights will continue, particularly for the young at heart.

From 12 Noon to 2 pm, meet a real sled dog.

At 3pm, listen to the North Shore Bell Ringers, and from 2 pm – 4 pm, meet the North Pole’s most famous resident, Old Saint Nick.
