Many groups will perform Christmas music throughout the weekend including our own village band, the Leavenworth Deutsche Amerikanische Blaskapelle (late November).
Christmas Lighting
1st, 2nd & 3rd weekends in December
Bavarian Village decked out in full holiday decor and filled with anticipation. The aromas of service club food booths and roasted chestnuts fill the frosty air. Entertainment from the bandstand, sledding in the park and sleigh rides. At dusk, everyone gathers together to sing “Silent Night” in the true meaning of the holiday spirit and to witness the lights as they transform Leavenworth into a magical winter wonderland (early to mid-December).
