Celebrate the Holidays in Lititz

Holiday Shopping!


This holiday season, we're asking you to join us in shopping local in Lititz! Our goal is to purchase all of our gifts with small, locally owned retailers and artists. To incentivize you, we're bringing back our Holiday Shopping Card!


How does it work? Pick one up at any downtown Lititz retail shop and present it at checkout. Merchants at all of our downtown shops - plus Artisan Mill Co - will initial or stamp your card for every $20 you spend. Fill the card and give it back to any merchant. We'll collect all the cards and pick 6 lucky winners of our 2024 Holiday Shopping prize to receive $100 Lititz Dollars to be used at any downtown shop, restaurant or cafe!


Christmas in the Park

December 6th, 6:30pm


We're decking the halls, and the bandshell, in preparation of this year's Christmas in the Park. This annual event, held by the amazing volunteers and staff at Lititz Springs Park, is the kickoff to our holiday celebrations.


The entire community is invited for live performances, the lighting of the Community Christmas Tree, a carol sing-along, and maybe even a special visit from Santa and Mrs. Claus!


This is a free event and usually lasts 30 to 40 minutes. Bundle up and join us for some holiday fun!

Linden Hall Vespers December 6th


Vespers has been a highlight at Linden Hall since its founding in 1746. Deeply embedded in the Moravian tradition, early Vespers services were completely sacred. More recently, programs have begun to include both sacred and secular music. Bible verses are now augmented by poetry readings.


The public is welcome to attend for free, and no reservations are needed. Simply show up and enjoy! If you are unable to attend in person, please visit the Linden Hall YouTube channel to join the event virtually.

Children's Winter Workshop

December 7th & 13th


So much fun for families! Bunyaad is bringing back their special Children's Winter Workshop, allowing your children to pick out special gifts, all on their own.


Bunyaad transforms a portion of their store into a special workshop, filled with unique fair trade gifts for every family member. One of their elves will help children shop (parents - make sure you bring along a list and give a budget) so that you can be surprised by what they choose! They'll even wrap the gifts. This is such a sweet way to share the joy of giving with your children.
