Tips & Advice

  • Register as soon as it opens in October, because organizers warn that dinner seating is limited.
  • Use the event's ticket-registration option to reserve your place; the site identifies the gathering as a ticketed dinner with limited seating.
  • Set aside the full 5–9 p.m. window so you can attend the scheduled evening event rather than arriving for only part of it.
  • If you have a prize to donate, contact Kenosha Christmas Charities by phone or email, as the listing says organizers accept prize donations.
