Save the Dates

Save the dates and make plans to join us for a European-style outdoor Christmas Market in the back courtyard of the majestic Cathedral of Saint Paul. We’ll have arts and crafts vendors, Gluhwein, hot cocoa and beer, food trucks, costumed carolers, a frame-worthy backdrop for family or friends’ group photos, games (BINGO on Saturday! Cash only), fire pits, a warming tent with music, and a chance to win fabulous prizes in our raffle!

"Christmas Together” concert series

Then we hope you cap off your visit by heading inside the Cathedral, gorgeously lit for the 8th Christmas Together with Steven C & Friends concert at 7 p.m. on Thursday and Friday, and an 11 a.m. matinee on Saturday. MORE INFO
