Elf Door Discovery

November 18 - December 31 2024

Downtown Norfolk

Magic is around every corner in Downtown Norfolk, as 100 tiny elf doors have appeared all around Downtown!

This seasonal scavenger hunt will take you on a fun journey all throughout Downtown Norfolk. Elves have installed 100 tiny, colorful entrances decked out for the holidays.

You can find these magical doors near theaters, restaurants, parks and any other places elves may gather throughout Downtown Norfolk.

And at WinterFest on the Wisconsin, 15 cheeky elves have also hidden doors with waterfront views!

The doors are not lit, so do this scavenger hunt during the day—and explore Downtown Norfolk’s restaurantsshopping, and other holiday activities while you’re here!

Will you find them all?
