Join A 17th Century English Christmas Celebration
This famous Bracebridge Dinner celebration consists of a four-hour pageant of classic carols presented in an elegant and artistic fashion. Guests will enjoy Renaissance rituals, Middle Age music and sumptuous food. Over 100 actors, actresses, and vocalists come together to recreate the roles of the Squire and his family, their servants, the Lord of Misrule, minstrels, and other performers. Decorated to an astonishing degree, the Ahwahnee dining room is transformed into the Great Hall. The dining room becomes the stage for the festivities, with magnificent wreaths, an elaborate Squire's table, large banners, and traditional Yuletide decorations as far as the eye can see.
Due to the four-hour length of the Bracebridge Dinner, it is not recommended that children under eight attend, and children fours years and under not permitted. There are no intermissions during the performance. Guests should leave their cameras, cell phones and video cameras in their room during the event, as no photography or video is allowed during the performance. The dress code for this event is very formal, and guests are not permitted to dress in Medieval attire. Seating arrangements are round tables of eight people; if special seating arrangements are desired, it can be duly noted on the reservation, but is never possible to be guaranteed. The souvenir portrait service is available in the Ahwahnee Solarium. This service is available in the afternoon on performance days only.

The Bracebridge Dinner is a world-renowned Christmas tradition at the Ahwahnee Hotel in Yosemite National Park. This grand Christmas event has been held at the Ahwahnee almost every year since 1927, when the historic landmark hotel first opened it's doors to the public. During this special time in December, the Ahwahnee Hotel is magically transformed into a 17th century English manor, where a grand feast of food, song and mirth takes place.
