An Enchanted Evening in the Woods

Wander onto the Gnome Trail in Seabrook’s Mill District on Saturday, September 12 from 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM for an immersive evening festival where twinkling lights, woodland music, and magical moments transform the forest. The Gnome & Fairy Festival returns this year with an entirely new experience inspired by the beloved trail itself, inviting guests of all ages to step into a whimsical world where giant dandelions tower overhead, fairy music drifts through the trees, and every discovery leads to a little more wonder.

Along the Glowing Trail

Beginning just beyond the Old Cedar Stump, the Gnome Trail has long been a favorite for visitors exploring the forest paths woven through Seabrook’s woods. During the festival, the trail will come alive with hobbit-style vendor huts, a wishing tree, face painting, and enchanted photo spots tucked throughout the grounds. Guests are encouraged to dress as their favorite fairy, gnome, woodland creature, or magical traveler as they wander through the illuminated forest.

Enjoy tiny treats made for little folk, including mini corn dogs, fairy dust donuts, Gnome Garden Baskets with miniature vegetables and magical drizzles, plus signature sips like Gnome Grog and sparkling Fairy Fizz.

The Gnome & Fairy Festival blends the charm of Seabrook’s forest trails with the feeling of stepping inside a fantasy world for one unforgettable evening. Follow the glowing paths, stroll beneath the trees, and discover a little magic hidden in the woods.
