![Christmas in Ellicottville](/sites/default/files/styles/large/public/events/2023/P2177085.jpg?itok=VNJLRfCi)
One of the best ways to describe the downtown of Ellicottville has been as something Norman Rockwell would have conjured up. The New York Times says it is like being “transported to a scene from an old black and white Christmas movie.” Kick off the Holiday Season with us! Christmas in Ellicottville Weekend is back and will be merrier than ever!
Enjoy horse drawn carriage rides, real reindeer, kids Christmas crafts, cookie decorating and more all at no cost to you in the spirit of the holiday season!

Rock cities, ancient glacial valleys, vertical-cliffed gorges, and continental divides are just a few of the sights one may see on a day trip through the area.
