Mistletoe Magic 2025

Sunday, November 30th from 12 PM to 3PM

The Chamber of Commerce hosts a downtown holiday family fun event on the Sunday following Thanksgiving. This event involves the closing of Purchase Street with lots of fun activities and performers for the entire family. Again this year we are trying to make it more of a holiday, hometown family festival with lots of crafts, activities and some games.

All proceeds go to the Rye Chamber of Commerce Scholarship Fund.
