Greenwich Reindeer Festival and Santa Village

An Annual Greenwich Holiday Tradition
11th Annual Greenwich Reindeer Festival & Santa’s Village
Sam Bridge Nursery & Greenhouses
November 29 – December 24, 2019
Santa and his reindeer, Dasher, Dancer and Prancer, return for the 11th Annual Greenwich Reindeer Festival & Santa’s Village located at “the North Pole on North Street,” Sam Bridge Nursery & Greenhouses, 437 North Street, Greenwich, Connecticut, from November 29 to December 24, 2019. The cherished town tradition takes place at this stunning holiday décor destination which is transformed into Santa’s Workshop sponsored by Greenwich Catholic School, where visitors can have their photo taken with Santa, and Santa’s Village, where families have the opportunity to visit the reindeer, enjoy train and carousel rides and select food trucks on the weekend, all just minutes from downtown Greenwich.
 “The Annual Greenwich Reindeer Festival is such a wonderful event in our town during the holidays and I am looking forward to celebrating the 11th season this year, “says Greenwich First Selectman Peter Tesei, “I encourage residents to see what makes this such an anticipated holiday experience every year.”
The community is invited to Sam Bridge Nursery & Greenhouses to visit Santa’s Workshop and for photos with Santa. While waiting for the reindeer to arrive, guests can enjoy refreshments from Planet Pizza, face painting, balloon art, and dance performances by Allegra Dance of Greenwich.
Children, adults, corporate groups, and even pets (on leashes) can have their photo taken with Santa at Santa’s Workshop sponsored by Greenwich Catholic School. Photo packages begin at $29.99 and include a special Shop & Dine Greenwich Gift Bag filled with Greenwich merchant information and hundreds of dollars in savings redeemable at participating stores and restaurants in Greenwich. Digital photos are provided on a USB drive. Enter the Mercedes-Benz of Greenwich Raffle, to win a Mercedes-Benz Children's Bicycle with every photo with Santa (one raffle per family). Raffle drawing by Santa takes place Tuesday, December 24 at 3:00 PM.
Photos with Santa: Monday - Friday, 12-6 PM and Saturday, 9 AM – 6 PM. The reindeer will depart on December 22, but Santa will remain for photos Christmas Eve, December 24, Tuesday, 9 AM – 3 PM. Carousel and Train Rides: Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, 12–6 PM and Saturday, 9 AM – 6 PM. Parking is FREE. 
Throughout the four weeks, the reindeer will make Sam Bridge their home, thanks to Reindeer Stable Sponsor, Pepsi.  Children can enter the "PEPSI NAME THE REINDEER CONTEST" and submit their favorite reindeer names in a ballot box at Sam Bridge Nursery & Greenhouses. Santa will draw the winning names on December 20th where they will be displayed at Sam Bridge Nursery & Greenhouses. Three winners and three winning reindeer names will be chosen.
"Greenwich has many cherished traditions, and the annual Reindeer Festival is certainly one of them, says First Selectman-electFred Camillo, “We look forward to celebrating the 11th season as much as the first ten!"
This season of giving and coming together as a community is beautifully illustrated by the tremendous support received from our Greenwich Reindeer Festival and Holiday Stroll sponsors; Reindeer Festival Hosted by Sam Bridge Nursery & Greenhouses; Reindeer Stable Sponsor, Pepsi; Santa’s Workshop Sponsor, Greenwich Catholic School;  Santa’s Raffle Sponsor, Mercedes-Benz of Greenwich; Live Music Entertainment Tent Sponsor, Yale New Haven Health/Greenwich Hospital;  Free Parking Sponsors, Barbara Zaccagnini Real Estate and Greenwich Magazine; Kids Zone, School Zone, and Tent Sponsors, Balducci’s, Bruni & Campisi, Dibico, Leaf Filter Gutter Protection, Pennington Grey, The Long Ridge School, Sunzi Silks and Venture Photography.  Community Sponsors, M.H.

the 2019 Greenwich Wine + Food Fest Recap

Social Media Promotion: Portions Sponsored

The 2019 #GWFF Recap

September has been such a busy month! 

As much as we loved all the traveling we did, we couldn't wait to get back to Connecticut at the end of the month to head on up to Greenwich Connecticut for the 9th Annual Greenwich Wine and Food Festival


The Cowboy and me!

That's right! Approximately 9-1/2 years ago Suni Unger, publisher of Serendipity Magazine, decided that Greenwich CT would be the ideal location for a premier wine and food festival. Boy, did she have it right. Now, nine 'Wine and Food Fests' later, it just keeps getting better and better! 


Matt Storch interviews Valerie Bertinelli


Case in point, this year celebrity chefs like Valerie Bertinelli, Martha Stewart, Marc Murphy, David Burtkus and Geoffrey & Margaret Zakarian were on hand.

Local celebrity chefs like Robin Selden, Matt Storch, Lindsay Perkins, Bill Taibe and Mary Giuliani were in attendance.

Wait! 

It only gets better! Some of our "Next Food Network Star's" fan favorite competitors like Jessica Tom, David Rose, and Christian Petroni also made appearances. 


Jessica Tom and David Rose


And top notch entertainment - like Michael Franti  & Spearhead, and Grammy award winning Little Big Town.

Some of my favorite moments from this year's festival were from watching the cooking demonstrations and learning little tips from the pros!

Marc Murphy's silky carbonara

But, hands down, the Grand Tasting Tent (aka the Culinary Village) was one of the best I've ever experienced in all the years I've attended! 

Here are some of the tasty treats we sampled!
Mix Root Vegetable Chili





Chocolates by LeRouge by Aarti

Fjord Fish Market Poke Salmon Bowl
A crowd favorite!

Little Beet Table
(now open in Greenwich CT!)


Stella Artois always delivers!

Definitely the prettiest table theme and display

Sweet Sip Sampling from PureLeaf Tea


Let there be wine!
And more wine!

As the sun set over the festival we wound down our night listening to the sweet sounds of Michael Franti  & Spearhead, and stayed to end the night by watching an amazing performance by Little Big Town.

Greenwich Wine + Food Fest, you've done it again! Another great year supporting a wonderful cause like Food Rescue and the local parks commission, and bringing the best of the best to Greenwich Connecticut! 

Stay tuned for news of what's coming to you as this wonderful food and wine festival turns 10 and heads into their TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY for #GWFF 2020!
