Chillin’ on Main ’23 and Santa too!
There’s holiday magic coming to Philadelphia Ave in Boyertown this Saturday! Building a Better Boyertown has asked Santa to come down and visit all the children at Boyertown’s annual winter street festival. Chillin’ on Main is perfect way to spark the holiday spirit in kids from one to ninety-two. It’s also a great place to get your holiday shopping done too! The event begins at 11am with your favorite holiday songs being performed by the Boyertown Alumni Band. Get there early to see Santa and Mrs. Claus as they make their way up Philadelphia Avenue, led by the Let’s Get Dancing dancers and the Boyertown Optimist Cheer. Then make sure to get your free picture with the Claus’! The fun doesn’t end there. There is so much more to do and see!
Stroll on down the Avenue where you will find crafters, vendors, and shops offering unique gifts, seasonal goodies, and free games and prizes for all. You’ll also find crafts for kids and you can even get a picture with the Grinch at The Ironstone!
If your tummy starts to grumble, don’t fear, Chino’s Place, Humpty’s Dumplings, Taqueria El Patron, and the Wow Wagon Food Truck are ready to serve you some of their delicious favorites. Speaking of delicious, The Peppermint Stick Candy Store will be offering up their famous hot chocolate and cotton candy too!
Now, if you need a little winter warmer, head over to Blitzen’s Holiday Bar at the Colebrookdale Railroad depot for some holiday spirits. There is also a special Grinch drink being offered at The Ironstone.
Bring your family and friends to Chillin’ on Main this Saturday, where you might just find a spark of the season’s magic…or a gift for that person who is impossible to shop for. Either way, you are bound to have a fantastic and festive afternoon!
