Gingerbread Bake-Off benefits disaster relief

November 17 – December 7, 2024 @ Southwest Virginia Cultural Center & Marketplace

The Virginia Highlands Festival holds a Gingerbread Bake-Off at the Southwest Virginia Cultural Center and Marketplace, Abingdon, Virginia, Nov. 23 through Dec. 7. All proceeds are designated for disaster relief.

Abingdon’s Gingerbread Bake-Off launches the holiday season with fun, whimsy and the opportunity to support the communities affected by Hurricane Helene.

The exhibit is open to everyone. Categories are Youth (11-17), adults (18 and older) and teams/families. Gingerbread houses may be made from kits or from scratch. Baking from scratch earns bonus points.

Entries are accepted at the Cultural Center Sunday, Nov. 17 from 1-4 p.m., Monday, Nov. 18 through Thursday, Nov. 21 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Entry is free. The public exhibit is held from Nov. 21 through Dec. 7. Winners are announced Sunday, Nov. 24 at 2 p.m. on Facebook Live. All entries are part of the silent auction.
