Create a Gingerbread House

Registration is available now!

Spend a sweet day with friends and family creating a mini house with graham crackers, icing and candy.

Please read the reservation instructions before reserving tickets:

  • Reservations are available starting 11am on October 26. They are required for all guests, including members.
  • Plan to make reservations as a family or group. Each reservation includes one gingerbread house kit ($10) and groups need to make as many reservations as they want kits. For example, a group that wants to create one gingerbread house together would need to make one reservation. A group that wants to have two kits would need to make two reservations and so on. At least one reservation is required to participate in the event but not every person in the group needs a reservation unless the group wants a kit for every person.
