Make your plans to join us for our holiday gathering to mark the opening of our 46th annual holiday season.

Thursday, December 3, 2026
At 5 p.m. at Victoria Mansion

Join us at 109 Danforth Street for a champagne toast to kick off this festive season. You won’t want to miss our designers’ interpretation of Santa’s Whimsical Workshop!

You’ll also enjoy holiday musical selections by Goldenwood Ensembles.

From 6:30 – 9 p.m. at the Cumberland Club

Gather at the Cumberland Club, 116 High St. in Portland to feast, sip, and celebrate the magic of the season. Heavy hors d’oeuvres and drinks will be available.

Proceeds from this festive, social evening support the Mansion’s mission to preserve this nineteenth-century treasure and share it with visitors from all over the world.

Thanks to our good friends at Holiday Inn by the Bay, parking and a complimentary shuttle service are available for the evening. The shuttle runs exclusively between Victoria Mansion, the Cumberland Club, and the Holiday Inn. Reserve your parking & shuttle spot when you purchase tickets.
