Step Into the Holidays of the Past at Strawbery Banke's Candlelight Stroll.

Wander the Museum grounds under the glow of candle boxes and string light as the historic Puddle Dock neighborhood is transformed for the season.

Explore furnished historic houses spanning the late 18th century through the 1950s, each decorated with greens and dried flowers from the Museum’s heirloom gardens. Tour exhibit houses highlighting Portsmouth’s maritime heritage, trades, and more.

Meet costumed roleplayers sharing the stories, customs, and celebrations of the families who lived in the neighborhood.

Outside, music, historical characters, warm cider, and festive performances fill the grounds.

Join me for some acoustic holiday music in the cider shed!
