The Christmas Tour of Lewes is part of a festive holiday weekend in Lewes. The Tour gives the Society a chance to show off its historic houses decorated for the season. In addition, several private homes are selected each year to bring even more Yuletide cheer to our quaint town on the bay. Celebrating 32 years in 2005, the Tour is the highlight of a weekend that includes numerous art shows, parades, dinners, and Christmas tree lightings in Lewes and the surrounding area.

Tickets can be purchased in Lewes at the Society, the Lewes Chamber of Commerce and the Zwaanendael Museum (both Kings Highway), and on Second Street at Traders and Habersham Peddler's. In Rehoboth Beach, tickets may be purchased at Browseabout Books on Rehoboth Avenue and in Fenwick Island at Seaport Antiques on Route 54. Advance tickets are $15.00 each; tickets purchased the day of the tour are $18.00 each. Tickets can be purchased over the phone (302-645-7670) or by printing out the form from the link above year-round. Motorcoach groups are welcome; parking is available for buses on a first come, first served basis.

Please note that ticket requests received after November 26 will be held at the Ellegood House Museum Shop at the Historic Complex and will be available for pick up at 10:00 AM the day of the tour.
