The holidays are about gatherings of friends and family—and we hope you take some time to enjoy special moments and warm memories at Allerton! Shop, dine, relax, rejuvenate—celebrate the season however you choose!
Our visitor-favorite annual holiday events include the Holiday Showcase, typically held the second weekend in December, featuring specially-selected artisans and businesses selling their unique products, a lunch buffet, carriage rides, and festive performances.
The self-guided light walk, Holiday GLOW, runs through the new year, and gives guests the chance to visit after dark and experience the statues, gardens, and natural areas through an enchanting stroll of lights and music.
Both little ones and adults enjoy finding the magic of Christmas with an afternoon of Sweets with Santa, presented by State Bank of Bement, in the historic Allerton Mansion.
Details and upcoming dates will be available here. Watch a video recap of past events here.
