Come solo, bring a date, or gather your most festive (or least festive) friends to spend a few hours eating, sipping, laughing, and embracing a little holiday chaos. It's time for our second annual Gingerbread House decorating contest!

We've taken care of the hard part—your house is already assembled with dangerously hot sugar syrup, so you can skip the construction headaches and get straight to the good stuff: creating, drinking, and making a glorious holiday mess. And yes, we clean it all up. We have an abundance of candies, cookies, chocolates, sprinkles, and edible decorations at your fingertips. Make your gingerbread masterpiece as elegant or outrageous as you please!

Competition categories:
- Most Likely to be Condemned
- Most Likely to be Featured in Architectural Digest
- Honorable Mention

Come hungry! Enjoy artisan breads, charcuterie, cheeses selected by our CCP® cheesemongers, fresh fruits and vegetables, and cozy, from-scratch French onion soup served in a bread bowl. Our resident mixologist Preston provides his signature hot toddy. We'll also have a “cranberry snowglobe” mocktail and red or white wine by the glass. Beer or Diet Coke is available by request.

Don't forget our first annual Station Park Ugly Sweater contest! The winner for Ugliest Sweater Ever walks away with a voucher worth two free seats to any upcoming Station Park Cooking Class.

Winners in each gingerbread house category receive a trophy and a Harmons Chef-curated prize bag.

We'll have holiday music that doesn't suck, and you could walk away with a few awards under your ugly sweater. At the very least, a Zillow-ready gingerbread house ready for display. Or eating. Whichever.

One preassembled gingerbread house per guest. All decorating materials included.
