Holiday magic is coming to downtown Oshkosh! Families are invited to Reindeer on the Square Sponsored by Verve on Saturday, December 12, 2026, from 1 to 3 p.m. at Opera House Square for an afternoon of festive fun and special holiday guests.

This family-friendly event will offer plenty of opportunities to get into the holiday spirit. Guests can meet live reindeer, enjoy children's music with Randy Peterson, write letters to Santa, and warm up with hot cocoa and cookies. Santa and Mrs. Claus will also make a special appearance!

While visiting downtown, families are encouraged to make a day of it by grabbing lunch or dinner at a local restaurant and checking a few gifts off their holiday shopping lists at their favorite downtown shops.

Bundle up, bring the whole family, and enjoy this magical holiday tradition in the heart of downtown Oshkosh!
