    Events, Shopping, and Dining This Holiday Season

    By Visit Jackson Hole
    Town of Jackson Hole Wyoming lights in winter

    Twinkling lights, cups of hot cocoa, bundled ice skaters, festive shop windows, bells and carols.

    Celebrating the holiday season in the festive alpine town of Jackson Hole is like living a scene from a Christmas movie. One where Santa drops from a tram and the best views of the lights come from 7,000 feet.

    Holiday Shopping

    Jackson Hole and Teton Village offer an entirely unique shopping experience with gifts you won’t find anywhere else in the world. Find custom hats from Sing Hat Company, stunning jewelry from Native JH, curated books from Valley Book Store, and unique trinkets from MADE. Small, local, one-of-a-kind shops can be found throughout the Valley, but some of our favorite “shopping districts” are Gaslight Alley, Glenwood Ave., the Aspens, and Teton Village.

    Shopping small and locally-owned in Jackson Hole supports business owners, employees, and our local economy throughout the year.

In the winter, festive produce fills warm soups and locally-sourced meats make unique entrees.
