Yosemite's Bracebridge Dinner

Jason Weisberger at 2:40 pm Tue, Dec 4, 2012

Last year I had the incredibly good fortune to attend Yosemite's Bracebridge Dinner. This yuletide celebration was designed into the Ahwahnee Hotel! The famous lodge's dining room transforms each December into that of Bracebridge Hall, from Washington Irving's sketchbook A Christmas at Bracebridge Hall.

While the history is as entertaining as the event itself do not miss the performance! The fantastic cast, set and costumes are paired with an incredible meal.

It is a fantastic experience.

Hey!! Good for you for posting this. I’ve been at the Ahwahnee many times during Bracebridge, but have never seen the dinner. Hope you had a great tip and you got out into the wilderness a abit.

Travel Channel had a blurb about this on one of their holiday shows. Looks like it would be a LOT of fun!
