ASTORIA LIVE | December 22nd, 2025

Hello Astoria!

Can you believe 2025 is almost over? I've been running Astoria Live for nearly 10 years, but this is the first year I've consistently sent a newsletter and posted on instagram EVERY WEEK! I have a lot of ideas for next year, and would love to know what you think.

I put together a super quick survey here - please take a couple minutes to share your thoughts!

It's pretty quiet this week, but I've scrounged up a few local happenings below. Lots of your fave local bars and restaurants will be open on Christmas Eve & Day - be sure to tip well!

Let me know about any New Year's Eve events through the event submission form and i will share asap, so we can all ring in 2026 close to home.

And, if you're still shopping for last minute holiday gifts, check out the local gift guide I put together. I was also recently reminded of how great the Museum of Nostalgia is for whimsical, last minute gifts. Lockwood is having a sale on holiday items too!

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate!

Cheers,

Stacey
