A Year Round Destination

Nantucket has something for everyone; museums, restored homes, cobblestone carriageways, great dining and shopping, the Island's natural beauty and a wide variety of recreational opportunities. Nantucket is also famous for its seasonal events, such as . . .

 

Nantucket's Daffodil Festival

The Daffodil Festival

Celebrating the Island's reawakening after a quiet winter, this festival is held the last weekend in April. It includes festivities such as the Antique and Classic Car Parade and the annual Tailgate Picnic Contest.

 

In August, don't miss the annual Sandcastle and Sculpture Day at Jetties Beach. Let your creativity soar.

And in October, Cranberry Harvest Weekend adds another dimension to Nantucket's autumn beauty . . . and you can actually watch the harvest.

Nantucket Noel

Beginning the day after Thanksgiving and continuing throughout December, Nantucket Noel is a joyous seasonal tradition encompassing an Ice Sculpting Demonstration, a Gingerbread House Contest, tree lighting ceremonies, carolling, Wreath Decorating contests and events throughout the season. Greet Santa at the Christmas Stroll the first weekend in December. He arrives, naturally, by boat.
