Pippi's After Christmas Party

About this event

Celebrate the Swedish tradition of julgransplundring to give the holiday season one final burst of music, laughter, and togetherness. This playful celebration is inspired by Astrid Lindgren’s beloved Pippi Longstocking stories. This program will go on sale Monday, September 28 (ASI members) and Friday, October 2 (public). Pippi’s After Christmas Party invites children and their important grown ups to celebrate julgransplundring, a beloved Swedish tradition that gives the holiday season one final burst of music, laughter, and togetherness. In Sweden, julgransplundring marks the end of the Christmas season, when families and friends gather one last time to enjoy the Christmas tree before putting away the holiday decorations. At ASI, all ages can discover this joyful tradition and send the season off with one last celebration as the Christmas tree comes down. Inspired by Astrid Lindgren’s beloved Pippi Longstocking stories, this playful celebration brings the spirit of Villa Villekulla to ASI. Pippi Longstocking herself will join the celebration, giving participants the opportunity to interact with Pippi, embrace her playful spirit, and create cheerful memories together. ASI educators and Ross Sutter will lead an afternoon filled with creativity, crafts, music, movement, and holiday fun. Children and their important grown ups can make decorations, dance around the Christmas trees, play, and enjoy one final burst of holiday joy together. Additional information: This program welcomes children and their important grown-ups of all ages. Food and beverages are available for purchase at FIKA Cafe and may be enjoyed during the program. Museum admission is included with registration, allowing participants to continue exploring ASI after the program.
