With Thanksgiving over, the Christmas season is now in full swing! Whether you’re visiting to ski or just planning a holiday getaway, Jackson is always the place to be. December always fills up fast with so many holiday activities, so here are five upcoming events in Jackson, WY, courtesy of the Jackson Hole Chamber of Commerce.

Holiday Spectacular Ice Show - Enchanted

Christmas and ice skating go hand in hand, creating the perfect magical blend of holiday cheer and winter wonder. Hosted by the Skating Club of Jackson Hole, this holiday spectacular highlights local talent of all ages performing in solo and group performances. This year, the show guest stars skating legends Kurt Browning and Alisa Cziney. Tickets are $30 for adults and $15 for those 18 and under. The event is held at Snow King Sports & Event Center on December 7th and 8th. For additional information and tickets, visit their website.

Annual Cookie Swap & Open House Presented by the Murie Ranch

Forgive me if I make too many Hallmark movie references in this post, but they host a cookie swap in all the best movies. What is a cookie swap? Bring a couple dozen of your favorite cookies and a container and you’ll leave with a sample of everyone else’s favorite cookies. This open house is from 1-3 at the Murie Ranch. Come for 15 minutes or stay for the entire two hours. You can enjoy hot cider on the porch, a bonfire, and a cookie created by the former ranch owner, Mardy. Transportation will be provided from the Moose Post Office Parking Lot with snow coaches leaving every 30 minutes starting at 1 pm. Or feel free to snowshoe or ski in for a little touch of winter wonderland. The open house is December 8 from 1 pm until 3 pm. 

Santa on the Square

Come meet Santa in the heart of Jackson Hole! Every night beginning December 14 until December 24 from 5 pm until 7 pm, come visit with Santa, enjoy seasonal treats, and create treasured memories with loved ones on Town Square. Be sure to stop by before Christmas Eve to make sure Santa gets your Christmas wish in time. 

Gingerbread House Decorating at The Wort

Okay, this is straight out of a Hallmark movie. Is there anything that captures the magic of the holidays more than cookie decorating and the subsequent sugar high? Candy, frosting, and gingerbread will surely get you in the holiday spirit. This is a ticketed event with reserved seating, so be sure to grab your tickets. You’ll get all the goods to decorate and customize your gingerbread house. It’ll be a showstopper on your table for your holiday party, or a delicious snack on the drive home. The workshop is held on December 18th at The Wort Hotel from 5:30 pm until 7:30 pm.

Winter Solstice Celebration at Rendezvous Park 

Come celebrate the winter solstice and the beginning of longer days at Rendezvous Park! Enjoy FREE (you read that right) macaroni and cheese, chili, and s’mores provided by Cooking in the Dark, as well as free hot chocolate and hot apple cider. Wyoming Whiskey will be there crafting hot cocktails as well. Enjoy sledding or a stroll through the glowing lantern trail made by Teton County students. The celebration will be held on December 20 from 4 pm to 7 pm. Visit their website for more information.
