Eau Claire sits where the Chippewa and Eau Claire rivers meet, a former lumber town turned college town with the Pablo Center on the confluence. The Children's Museum of Eau Claire, Carson Park's stadium and the Eaux Claires music festival, co-founded by native son Justin Vernon of Bon Iver, are its fixtures. L.E. Phillips Memorial Public Library is downtown.
Holiday events for kids in Eau Claire, 2026: tree lightings, light displays, Santa visits and gingerbread workshops, day by day.
10 children’s events are on in Eau Claire in the next seven days, read every night from the calendars of L.E. Phillips Memorial Public Library (2 branches, 135 upcoming programmes). Library programmes are free. Museum and zoo events say “admission may apply”; check the venue for prices.
25 places to collect. Tap “I'm here” when you're at one and the stamp goes in your book; collect 5 and print the certificate.
