Krampusnacht Downtown

Krampus is a famous character from European folklore, who is said to be the “shadow of St. Nicholas.” It is said that while St. Nicholas rewards children for being good, Krampus punishes children for being bad.

This event has a dark and stylized theme, but is intended to be child-friendly for those kids who enjoy spooky things! (We trust parents to use their utmost discretion in this area, please and thank you!)
