Get ready to immerse yourself in the magic of the holiday season as The Holiday Stroll, now powered by Stamford Ford, returns to Mill River Park for another year of joyous celebration. The beloved event, which captivated hearts and brought smiles to faces last year, is back with a revamped experience designed to make this holiday season unforgettable.
What to expect
Prepare to be enchanted as you step into a world of wonder and whimsy at The Holiday Stroll powered by Stamford Ford. Our festive walk through downtown Stamford’s Mill River Park will transport you to a winter wonderland adorned with larger-than-life Christmas displays and breathtaking illuminations. Immerse yourself in the holiday spirit with the following highlights:
- Monumental Christmas Displays: Be awe-inspired by a 30-foot Christmas tree adorned with hundreds of twinkling lights, all synchronized to your favorite holiday tunes. Marvel at monumental three-dimensional ornaments with gold interiors, a candy cane arch, and a 16-foot gingerbread house – perfect for those magical family photos.
- Christmas Village: Warm up by the fire pits scattered around the Christmas tree and experience the thrill of Mill River Park’s ice-skating rink (additional cost). Enjoy multiple food vendors and themed treats like cider doughnuts, and hot cocoa with marshmallows, making it a truly magical experience for all ages.
Drive to give
But that’s not all! This year, we are excited to introduce our “Drive to Give” initiative in collaboration with Stamford Ford and Hey Stamford. We believe that the true spirit of the season lies in sharing joy, love, and generosity with those who need it most.
How it works
Starting from Thanksgiving and leading up to Christmas, “The Holiday Stroll – Drive to Give” will surprise a deserving family each week, spreading holiday magic far and wide. Thanks to Stamford Ford’s generous support:
- We’ll gift the family with $1,000 in cash to help make their holiday season a little brighter.
- The chosen families will also receive complimentary tickets to The Holiday Stroll, where they can create cherished memories with their loved ones, surrounded by the festive wonder of the event.
How you can help
Nominate families who could use an extra dose of holiday magic this year. Share their heartwarming stories with us, and together, we’ll select those most deserving of this extraordinary gift. Let’s come together to make this holiday season truly special for those who need it most. To nominate a family or individual please email: FordDriveToGive@gmail.com
