Bowen's Wharf | Newport, RI

It’s the most wonderful time of the year – twinkling lights, fragrant wintergreens, beautiful bows, and a most amazing Christmas tree on historic Bowen’s Wharf.
Come early for leisurely holiday shopping and stay through the evening as festivities kick off with an afternoon visit from Santa, followed by carol sing-alongs and special holiday performances from local musicians and choruses. The enormous tree is lit promptly at 6:00 – the official beginning of the holiday season at Bowen’s Wharf! Santa and Mrs. Claus motor into Bowen’s Basin by boat, eager to listen to every child’s wish.
Bowen’s Wharf restaurants remain open for holiday meals and many shops offer sweet refreshments and crafts. FREE ADMISSION! Join us for a magical day of festive fun and good cheer!
