Sparkling Newport Christmas
Friday, December 11
Surround yourself with the magic of the Newport Mansions in all their festive holiday finery! Enjoy a delicious, included lunch at the Brick Alley Pub.
Then explore THREE of the stately Gilded Age mansions lavishly decorated for the holidays. Tour The Elms and Marblehouse in the afternoon festooned with hundreds of poinsettias, garlands, wreaths, ornaments, and dozens of Christmas trees adorning every room of these grand homes.
In the evening we will head to the largest of the mansions, The Breakers, where we will find nearly 30 Christmas trees exquisitely decorated to complement the décor and theme of each room. Dont miss Mr. Vanderbilt's tree, ornamented with trains and top hats and the 15-foot-tall poinsettia tree in the Great Hall made of nearly 150 poinsettia plants. Then head outdoors to the grounds of the mansion for Sparkling Lights at The Breakers! Youll stroll along a half-mile-long path glittering with hundreds of thousands of holiday lights while music fills the winter air. See illuminated displays and sparkling surprises along the way. Holiday treats and adult beverages are available for purchase on the terrace for a sweet treat to end the night.
