Oh the weather outside is frightful, ‘tis the season in Wisconsin’s capital city! We’ve curated a little list of some festive activities happening here in Madison and the nearby, surrounding area during the month of December to get you, your family, and your friends in the holiday spirit.

November can be something of a transitional time. Halloween is over, we’ve all been to the orchard and pumpkin patches, the Farmer’s Market on the square is wrapping up for the season, and the trees are no longer in peak color as we enter winter. So, now what?

Booking a meeting at an independent hotel like The Madison Concourse Hotel and Governor’s Club can provide a refreshing departure from the routine experience offered by chain hotels.
