2019 Holiday Events

The holiday season brings many reasons to celebrate and gather. Surround yourself with friends, family, and other warm faces during this special time of year at Allerton! Reflect, create, cheer, shop, dine, or simply enjoy the scenery at any of our Holiday events. Many events/seating times sell out quickly so get your tickets soon!


Children and adults alike can experience the magic of the Allerton Mansion with Mr. and Mrs. Claus during Sweets with Santa.

Join Allerton and Delight Flower Farms as you feel the joy of the winter spirit and work together with new and old friends to create a favorite seasonal decoration at our Wreath Workshop.

Don’t miss a holiday lunch buffet, carriage ride, festive performances, and the opportunity shop unique products from select artisans and businesses at the Holiday Showcase.

Grab your cocktail attire and meet us in the Mansion for an elegant evening of soothing holiday music, dinner, and complimentary wine at the Holiday Affair.

Have you ever wanted to explore the inside of the historic Allerton Mansion or learn more about Robert Allerton and his estate? December is the perfect time of year to do so at the Holiday-Style Public Mansion Tours.

Visit Allerton after dark and view the statues, gardens, and natural areas through an enchanting stroll of lights during the Kirby Winter Wellness Walk, sponsored by Kirby Medical Center.

Warm up by the fire in celebration of the winter solstice at the Scandinavian-tradition inspired Feast of Juul.
