The trail runs from 12:00 to 4:00 PM on Saturday, November 21. You’ll get a commemorative glass to sample-size holiday cocktails at up to 15 stores throughout Newtown Borough and enjoy discounts at select merchants. Cocktail recipes will be available at each stop.

The trail begins at the Newtown Theatre, 120 N. State Street, where you’ll pick up a commemorative glass and a trail “passport.” The passport will list each stop on the trail and any promotions the shops are offering that day. Photo ID is required when checking in.

Blaze your own trail! After you check in at the theatre, you can go in any order you like.
