Your home for the holidays
the official guide to seasonal events & activities in torrington, cT
From twinkling trees and carolers to a private visit with Santa, there are plenty of ways to celebrate the holiday season in Torrington. For over 70 years, Christmas Village has been a holiday essential for the residents of Torrington and Litchfield County. Children of all ages can’t help but feel that a walk through Christmas Village is a walk through Santa’s North Pole residence. Torrington celebrates the season from Thanksgiving to New Year’s Day. Our churches, businesses, caring neighbors and customers, parishioners and patrons all become the elves that put the “merry” in Merry Christmas. As you read through this guide, you’ll discover dozens of ways for all of us to come together as a community to celebrate the holidays, making “Christmastime in Torrington... your home for the holidays.” I am eternally grateful for the commitment of our newly formed committee of volunteers who put on their “Christmas best” this year to create holiday magic throughout downtown Torrington. Their tireless efforts can be seen through the decorations on Main Street, the social media campaign and the collection of calendar events listed in this guide, reminding each of us that Christmas is about coming together as a community. I hope everyone finds their way downtown to kick off the season with our Light Up Main event on November 29th. Come reminisce about Christmas past, create new memories of Christmas present and help us carry on the traditions into Christmas Future. Be sure to visit us on facebook at Christmastime in Torrington CT and share your favorite holiday memory.
Merry Christmas!
Elinor Carbone
