Old Sturbridge Village is open year-round and each season brings related special events. As for holidays, special focus is given to Washington's Birthday, Independence Day, and Thanksgiving, the three major holidays in the Village's period.
Also new to the Village is an exploration of the history of Christmas traditions in December. The Village is decorated for the month of December, known as "Spirit of the Season," and offers several candlelight evenings.
If you're interested in a way of life long since past, you can recapture it here in all of its fullness. It's a must stop on any New England getaway.
