The Nantucket Historical Association (NHA) is pleased to announce that its 28th Annual Festival of Wreaths will take place this year at a new location: the historic Macy Warehouse at 12 Straight Wharf. Presented for the first time on the building’s second floor, the festival will offer visitors a rare opportunity to explore this historic space, all while bidding on their favorite wreaths. Admission will be free to all visitors.
The move to the Macy Warehouse also allows the NHA to expand the Festival of Wreaths beyond its traditional Thanksgiving-week schedule. For the first time, the festival will span nearly two weeks (November 24-December 5), extending through Nantucket’s beloved Christmas Stroll Weekend, alongside the Festival of Trees that opens at the Whaling Museum on December 4.
Preview Party:
Monday, November 23
5-7 PM
Whaling Museum
Tickets available in October!
Festival Dates: Tuesday, November 24-Saturday, November 28
The Festival of Wreaths is the Nantucket Historical Association’s kickoff celebration of the holiday season. This community-driven event features an array of beautifully crafted wreaths made by islanders, local businesses, non-profits, schools, and organizations. From traditionally decorated greens to unconventional arrangements, the Festival of Wreaths truly captures the creativity of Nantucketers!
