South Jersey’s Winter Village At New Location This Holiday Season

The Thanksgiving and Christmas Holiday seasons are the time of year we get to enjoy Winter Activities with family and friends. That tradition will continue in South Jersey for Black Friday Weekend.

Over the last decade, many South Jersey Communities have hosted Small Business Saturday Events the day after Black Friday. These events celebrate the Holiday Season and attract visitors to local businesses for holiday shopping.

The Annual Winter Village featuring Food Vendors and Holiday Activities for all ages will have a new location in Sea Isle City this year due to construction happening at the corner of JFK Boulevard and Landis Avenue.

What You Need To Know About The 2024 Winter Village Event

The two-day Holiday Event attracts thousands of people to Sea Isle City for a plethora of Christmas-themed activities to enjoy after Thanksgiving.  But the 2024 Edition of the Winter Village has changed locations due to construction happening at the Ludlam Bar and Grill property.

This year's Winter Village will be hosted at Excursion Park at the corner of Pleasure Avenue and JFK Boulevard next to the Promenade. The Shopping Vendors and Food Court will be open from 2 pm to 9 pm on Friday November 29th while the Family-Friendly Activities will be open to the Public from 11 am to 6 pm on Saturday, November 30th.

The conversion of Sea Isle City's Excursion Park into this year's Winter Village will include a Shopping Village Tent with at least 14 Vendors featuring local businesses. Next to the tent will be the Food Court featuring Bright Spot Cafe, Mike's Seafood, Shorebreak Cafe, and Boy Scout Troop 76.

The South Jersey Winter Village is hosted by the Sea Isle City Chamber of Commerce and Revitalization. A member of the SICOC is Amy Glancey, the Chief Marketing Officer for Shorebreak Resorts, and she spoke to me about this year's event:

"I am genuinely excited to see all the businesses uniting to take part in the Winter Village this year! It's truly heartwarming to observe the community spirit and teamwork that breathe life into this event. We look forward to this event's growth with the support of our sponsors."
