A holiday favorite is back – and it’s bigger and better than ever! Troutdale’s Wind-er Wonderland and Tree Lighting benefitting Snow Cap Community Charities will take place in Historic Downtown Troutdale from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Saturday, December 3 and Sunday, December 4

A highlight of the event will be our holiday market that will be set inside the former Troutdale General Store at 289 E Historic Columbia River Hwy. This market will feature two floors of local vendors selling handcrafted gifts, holiday music, and an activity area for the kids. The first 500 people through the door each day will receive a free swag bag filled with goodies and deals from our sponsors.

The holiday magic will transform one of our downtown storefronts into Santa’s headquarters. Kids of all ages can follow the signs to the North Pole and visit with Santa and Mrs. Claus and grab a selfie or two.

The festivities will extend to the rest of our downtown as our businesses square off in a holiday window decorating competition and take part in our Troutdale Teddy scavenger hunt. Everyone who completes the activity will receive a free Troutdale-themed gift. A different gift will be available each day.

The weekend culminates with the City’s traditional tree lighting ceremony in Mayors Square at 5:00 p.m. on Sunday, December 4. You won’t want to miss this community event as we light up our beautiful, live blue spruce!
