SPONSORSHIP! There are many holly-jolly sponsorship opportunities this year, each with great benefits! Take a look at the 2022 CORNISH CHRISTMAS SPONSORSHIP PACKET
Cornish Christmas invites you to mill around downtown, stroll with your favorite hot beverage from the GVDA and Chamber Holiday Beverage Booths, and visit a Winter Festival of Cornish Christmas favorites you know and love. Shop our “Downtown Promenade” and Main Street with extended Holiday Hours.
Downtown Grass Valley will be filled with the sights and sounds of an old-fashioned Christmas; carolers, musicians, and a fire pit to warm your hands. Look for Santa and Mrs. Claus, Snow Queen, the Tree Lady, and other holiday characters. The event hosts craft and food vendors, and the town shops, restaurants, wine-tasting rooms, tap houses, and bars are open. The streets will be awash in festive holiday décor, lights, and sparkling windows.
Bring your camera to take photos with Santa, he’ll be waiting for you at 145 Mill Street!
In addition to extended holiday shopping hours on certain days, the Grass Valley Downtown Association (GVDA) and the GV Chamber will have holiday drink booths located on Mill Street and at the Clocktower at Mill and Main. Enjoy mulled wine or a favorite hot holiday beverage from the beverage booths, and Sip, Stoll, and Shop downtown to find your holiday treats.
Pause at the steps of the historic Union Building as the Cornish Carol Choir performs traditional homeland Christmas carols. Enjoy the wide selection of holiday music amongst the trappings of a historic gold rush town.
Join us this Holiday season in supporting our local businesses, enjoying food and libations, shopping, and strolling Downtown in our festive holiday environment!
