Enjoy Holiday Fun at Brookside on Elm Street, located in Manchester's North End Neighborhood

Plan to shop in support of local artisans and makers during our Annual Craft Fair starting at 10 am. Patrons of our event can conveniently take advantage of our event parking, then easily head down the street as we are in walking distance en route to the starting point of our city's holiday parade scheduled for 4 pm, after time spent at our Craft Fair.

After the parade, head back to Brookside for our Annual Holiday Light Night featuring a Hero Awards Ceremony, our Living Nativity animal friends from Miles Smith Farm, a handbell performance by Granite State Ringers, beautifully immersive lights display from New England Holiday Lights Company, hot chocolate, freshly made food, and much more.

This year, our event is the same day as the annual MHT Holiday Parade and we invite visitors to downtown Manchester to plan ahead making Christmas at the Brook festivities the bookends during this day of joyful celebration. There is no cost to attend our festivities.
