ELLICOTTVILLE - What’s better than the shopping mall or Amazon this holiday season? … a visit to Ellicottville, New York! Find everything you need for under the Christmas tree in Ellicottville’s downtown business district. Plan a day, park the car, and enjoy a winter wonderland as you shop the afternoon away, crossing off all those on your gift giving list.
“Not only is our village stacked with a variety of unique shopping, but you’ll feel good knowing that you are supporting small, local businesses,” said Jessica Wallace, Business Development Manager at the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce. “You’ll find the latest fashion trends, fun kid toys, winter gear, stocking stuffers, home decor and more at over two dozen shops and boutiques, all within a 4-block walkable footprint. There really is something for everyone here in Ellicottville!”
Through a partnership with PandaGoat Media, the Chamber has put together a “Holiday Marketplace” featuring great gift ideas and specials available at many of the local shops. You can view the Holiday Marketplace catalog at www.ellicottvilleny.com and at www.ellicottvilleNOW.com.
Along with all the independently owned specialty gift shops, Ellicottville offers a worldly menu of dining options - from American cuisine to Mediterranean fare to authentic Italian dishes - it’s the perfect compliment following a busy day of shopping. And for those looking to make a night of it, there are plenty of overnight accommodations in and nearby Ellicottville to fit every budget.
Since launching its “Christmas in Ellicottville” campaign Thanksgiving weekend, the Chamber has continued to promote its member businesses and the ‘Ellicottville Experience’ through local event sponsorships, pop-up events and the Chamber’s expansive digital outreach.
“We are grateful to have had so many of our local businesses hop onboard to help us promote the holiday season here in Ellicottville. It is because of these businesses that we are able to offer holiday-themed activities and push our campaign across various media outlets,” said Wallace. “With the slopes now open and our Canadian friends able to join us, this season has been a festive one thus far that will continue right through the rest of the year!”
The Chamber would like to thank the following businesses who provided sponsorship to help support the Christmas in Ellicottville events and the beautiful Christmas lights you see downtown: Ellen Fenton & Co., Silver Fox Steakhouse, Holiday Valley Resort, Holiday Valley Realty, Gado Gado, Kazoo II, The Banq, Dina’s Restaurant, Stahlka Agency, Krysick & Co., American DND, and Daff.
The next holiday happening hosted by the Chamber is the Ellicottville Holiday Mixer, set for this Thursday, December 16th at 6:00pm at the Silver Fox Steakhouse. Open to everyone in the community, the Holiday Mixer is a chance to come together and celebrate in a fun, festive atmosphere.
“We encourage the community to come out and enjoy an evening of holiday fun while mingling and celebrating all the successes we’ve had this year!” said Wallace. “It’s a chance for all of us to unwind, enjoy some food, drink specials, and celebrate! Wear that cute holiday party dress, or sport your ugly Christmas sweater, or just come casual. This is an evening for everyone!”
There is no entry fee for the Holiday Mixer, and reservations are not necessary. For additional information, contact the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce at 716-699-5046 or email info@ellicottvilleny.com.
