Things to Do
Don't Miss The Magic
Two Magical Saturdays
- Saturday, November 28
- Saturday, December 5
Port Washington comes alive with 2 days of Entertainment, special offers, free trolley rides, and a whole lot of magic. Start the Holiday Magic season with Small Business Saturday. Santa rings in the festivities from the firetruck at 12 noon.
Participating businesses will have deals and treats – check the Try Port First app for a list of the stores and their special offers and look for the red bows on the store fronts.
Day 2 is Port Washington’s own “Giving Saturday.” We encourage the community to Buy Local to Give Local. A day of Giving Magic brings local non-profit orgs under one roof to make giving easy. In addition, participating businesses act as collection sites for Make a Child Smile toy drive.
Businesses throughout town display their holiday spirit with the window decorating contest. Final awards for best painted and best decorated will be announced.
