This festive event comes after a nationwide contest where Old World Christmas fans voted for their favorite Christmas town to host the ornament swap. Officially recognized as a Hallmark Hometown Christmas Town, Portsmouth was voted the lucky winner, thanks to its transformation into a winter wonderland each holiday season.
Three hundred and sixty individuals participated in the ornament exchange and took home their very own Old World Christmas ornament to cherish for the holiday seasons to come. Festivities also included a DJ playing holiday tunes, delicious seasonal treats, and photo opportunities. This was a new world record attempt with a minimum of two hundred and fifty people required.
"The ornament exchange was a wonderful way to give back to our loyal fanbase and celebrate the magic of Christmas, as well as our 45th anniversary," said Neal Applefeld, President and CEO of Old World Christmas. "We cherish being a part of families' Christmas traditions, and we hope that others around the country will host their own ornament swap and build new memories."
