Every December a Holiday Festival is held in downtown Bellport Village. This festive day starts with a "Breakfast with Santa" at the Community Center, followed by numerous winter holiday events in the Village.  A "Soup Contest" is held for local restaurants where Bellport residents are the lucky judges. The Holiday Parade through the Village begins at Browns Lane and South Country Road or the Fire House, and finishes at the steps of the Community Center, where local groups hold sing-a-longs and small concerts. It is followed by the official tree lighting to kick off the holiday season!

2008 Holiday Festival

Once again, the Village Holiday Tree Lighting was a huge success. The evening started with a procession through town to the Community Center where hot cider, cocoa, marshmallows and cookies were waiting for everyone, courtesy of The Bellport restaurant and Porters restaurant. Santa arrived by fire truck, thanks to the Bellport Fire Department, and he was followed by a group of professional figure skaters and the official tree lighting. A wonderful time was had by all!
