Yosemite's Holiday Tradition

Please Note:Due to ongoing concerns related to COVID-19 and limitations on group gatherings for public safety, The Ahwahnee’s Signature Food & Wine Events will not take place this fall/winter season. This includes Vintners’ Holidays 2022, Bracebridge Dinner 2022 and Chefs’ Holidays 2023. Thank you for your understanding and we look forward to resuming these events in the near future.

Come travel back through time to a Christmas of centuries past!

The grand Ahwahnee Dining Room, aglow with candlelight and filled with the warmth and spirit of this beautiful time of year, is transformed into the magical Manor Hall of author Washington Irving's Squire Bracebridge. The evening abounds with the glorious sound of voices, while rollicking entertainment and profusions of food are but part of America's best-loved holiday tradition. The harmony of music and nature unite in this elegant evening -- an extraordinary tribute to a timeless season of joy.

Fun Fact:著名摄影师安塞尔·亚当斯是《联桥晚餐》的第一任导演,他也是主要角色之一。


The seasons have now come full circle. The Valley is blanketed with peace.

We gather in convivial mood to revel, yet, as well, to pay tribute to nature’s own tradition. For within the walls of this hallowed valley, where our hearts, restored, are filled with gladness, nature speaks of deepest peace.

Our souls, renewed by nature’s grandeur and tranquility, affirm our desire for love and brotherhood to unite our world as we are here united in the harmony of music and nature.

Now, let our celebration start, with merry song and dance and sport, that all ye gathered together may show such tribute, as again is due, the god who gave all this around, that fills our hearts with joy profound!
