Join us for Hometown Holidays in Sequim
 
The holiday season brings warm memories; time spent with family and friends, sparkling lights, and delightful surprises.  For some, the season reminds us of a simpler time when life wasn't so busy and hectic.

In Sequim, we kick-off our Hometown Holiday celebration the Saturday after Thanksgiving.  If you're looking for a more relaxed holiday experience, full of small-town charm and reminiscent of an easier time, start a new tradition and visit Sequim over the holiday season.
The Festivities Begin Saturday, November 26
We never know how Santa will arrive in Sequim for the kick-off of Hometown Holidays, but we do know that he and the Mrs. will arrive in downtown at 2:00 on Saturday, November 26 for photo opportunities with kids of all ages.  There just might be a princess or two along for the ride.
 
Mr. & Mrs. Clause arrive in downtown Sequim.

Leading up to the festivities, the elves come out in force to decorate and prepare the City.  The tree lights up at 4:30 p.m. I wonder how many lights they can fit on that tree?
 
Volunteer elves decorate for the season.


Every town has holiday tractors, right?  B e sure to stick around for the Tractor Procession of Lights immediately following the tree lighting ceremony.  You're not going to see this everywhere!
 
Holiday tractors are a tribute to Sequim's agricultural heritage and a unique way to celebrate the season. 


Do Some Shopping
Sequim's charming and walkable downtown is full of family-owned, unique shops that carry merchandise ranging from hand-printed linens and local lavender to fine jewelry and art supplies.  Be sure to stop in and pick up some special gifts.
 
Downtown Sequim has a variety of unique, family-owned stores.

While you are more likely to see sunshine than snow in Sequim, every once in a while we get a dusting that adds a little extra magic to everything.  It doesn't last long, but it gives us a postcard perfect picture for at least a little while.

 
A rare, light dusting of snow adds extra magic to the holidays.
