Wassail Days

The Town of Frisco, known as the “Main Street of the Rockies” has an iconic Wassail Days celebration that truly embodies the holiday spirit. Each year, Frisco hosts a weeklong celebration of the winter and holiday season with wassail, a traditional warm Old English apple cider. Over the years, Frisco’s Main Street businesses have worked to perfect their own iterations of this holiday staple, collectively serving more than 5,000 complimentary cups to guests each year. G

• Small Business Saturday (Nov. 27)
