Block Island Holiday Shopping Stroll Weekend
2024-11-29 10:00 - 2024-12-01 19:00 (America/Halifax) | RI
Black Friday has become a bit stressful over on the mainland, with stampeding crowds and all-night sales, so why not start your shopping with an event that’s decidedly more low-key: Block Island’s Annual Holiday Shopping Stroll?
The Shopping Stroll starts the Block Island holiday season, with the town sporting festive decorations including the now-famous Lobster Pot Tree, and local retailers offering incredible sales beginning at 10 AM Friday. Almost all shops on Water and Dodge Street will be open (Shop days and hours may vary, so make sure to check)
For more info on how to turn Black Friday into Block Friday, call the Chamber of Commerce at 401 466 2474 or visit their website.
There will be High Speed ferry service from Pt.Judith over this weekend!
