About the event
THEY’RE COMING TO TOWN…
AltFestEvents presents Jingle in the Woods: A Christmas Rewilding.
Meet the Wild Bunch—Krampus, Santa Squatch, La Befana, and Belsnickel! These ragged visitors from winter folklore will mingle with adults and children, bringing mischief, stories, and unexpected encounters throughout the gathering.
Try your luck at the Naughty or Nice coin toss, make a Befana broom in our broomstick workshop, and discover handmade gifts and curious creations from vendors and makers. Gather for storytelling and conversations with guests exploring folklore, cryptids, and strange phenomena.
Come curious. Bring your imagination. There’s room for a little wildness in Christmas.
More details and participant announcements to come.
