Jump Start Holiday Shopping

By Jamie Kauffold | Nov. 26, 2022

Downtown Petoskey hosts their Holiday Open House on Friday, Dec. 2, from 6-9pm as Santa flies into town to light the giant Christmas tree in Pennsylvania Park. New this year is the Downtown Social District, where you can carry your adult beverage with you when you walk from store to store. Saturday, the Holiday Merchant Open House and Hot Cocoa Contest takes over downtown Charlevoix. Follow the Hot Cocoa Trail posters in the windows of participating shops and restaurants from 12-5pm and vote for your favorite.
