CONNECTICUT MORGAN’S

CLOSING NIGHT FETE ‘26

DECEMBER 12, 2026 - 7:00 - 10:00 PM

Fête (pronounced "fet" or "fayt") is a festive celebration or festival, often a large party, gala, or outdoor event with entertainment, music, and food, originating from the French word for celebration or feast. As a verb, to fête someone means to honor or entertain them lavishly with such a celebration.  

  • The Closing Night Fête is a celebratory evening that brings the Connecticut Morgan season to a close in style. Designed to feel welcoming, the event blends holiday ambiance with warm hospitality, think an intimate, beautifully curated gathering rather than a formal gala. Guests can expect excellent food and libations, as we toast a memorable season together.

  • Get into the spirit of the season with your most cheerful holiday-inspired attire! Think sparkling sweaters, jolly red and green outfits, cozy holiday scarves, glittery accessories, or even a touch of faux fur. Show off your holiday cheer and let your festive spirit shine - the more joyful and creative, the better!

  • Yes. Guests will enjoy holiday-inspired fare designed to feel comforting, with something for everyone throughout the evening. To finish on a warm and festive note, homemade holiday cookies and a s’mores bar will be offered.

  • Yes, children are welcome. We strive to make the Closing Night Fête enjoyable for guests of all ages and ensure there are engaging touches throughout the evening to keep our younger guests entertained while parents relax and enjoy the celebration.
