December 11 - December 13
Who says beach towns are only fun in summer? Christmas by the Sea transforms Ogunquit into a seaside winter wonderland, complete with twinkling lights, holiday music, and plenty of New England charm. This beloved December tradition brings festive parades, tree lightings, artisan craft fairs, live performances, and a spectacular fireworks display to one of Maine’s favorite LGBTQ+-friendly destinations. Wander the decorated streets, browse local shops, grab a seasonal cocktail, and soak up the holiday spirit with friends or chosen family. It’s everything you love about a classic Christmas celebration, just with ocean views and a little extra fabulousness. Santa, pack something warm.
