Woodstock Christmas Eve Celebration 2023 (photos)

Santa’s helpers on Christmas Eve in Woodstock. (Photos by Dion Ogust)

For over 90 years, Santa has been arriving in Woodstock on Christmas Eve, each time in a new and wonderful way. The Village Green is transformed into a holiday postcard scene. A huge Christmas tree is decorated with hundreds of lights, music fills the air. This year, the Grinch was heading out of town stealing Santa Claus who was stuffed in a big wrapped gift box, when Woodstock police showed up and arrested the big green Grinch and took him away — to the delight of screaming little kids — and then Santa popped out of the box with confetti flying in the air.

Enjoying the festivities for Santa’s arrival on the village green in Woodstock.
Music by Jimmy Eppard.
