Rye's annual “Mistletoe Magic Celebration” attracted hundreds of visitors, offering a festive atmosphere for holiday shopping at local businesses this weekend.

Purchase Street was closed off for several hours this weekend as everyone got to do some holiday shopping at local businesses, with lots of fun for the kids.

The event featured activities for children, including a chili cook-off contest and a special appearance by Santa Claus.

News 12's Lisa LaRocca served as a celebrity judge in the cook-off.
