Misty Harbor is less than a 15-minute drive from Dock Square – the
center of Kennebunkport’s holiday festivities known as “Christmas
Prelude”. This quintessential seaside celebration has grown to a 14-day
event with Santa arriving in a Lobster Boat, Tree Lighting Ceremonies,
Caroling events, Historic House Tours, Sleigh rides and much more. 
Shoppers enjoy great bargains and deals and cookies and cider are served
in the boutique and art galleries to shoppers. There are holiday fairs
to stock up on Maine made crafts and gifts for your shopping list.
One
of the Christmas festival highlights is the tree lighting ceremony in
the center of town. 
Presidents and celebrities vacation and guests
come from around the world. 
The picture perfect village is stunning when it is all decked in bows,
boughs and bright lights to welcome the holiday season. Kennebunkport
transforms itself into a century old village with the old fashioned
spirit of the holidays. Like a Norman Rockwell scene, the town conjures
up Christmas’ of the past and the magic of the true holiday spirit. It’s
no wonder that Kennebunkport’s Prelude has fetched the media spotlight.
Recently, HGTV featured Prelude as the “#2 Christmas Town in America”.
Festivities extend to downtown Kennebunk and to the fishing village of
Cape Porpoise where locals construct a Christmas Tree entirely out of
Lobster Traps.
