Rudolph saves Christmas and goes down in history in this family classic!

Filled with holiday hits like “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” and “A Holly Jolly Christmas,” Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer™ JR. features all of your favorite characters including Santa and Mrs. Claus, Hermey the Elf, Bumble the Abominable Snow Monster, Clarice, Yukon Cornelius and, of course, Rudolph. It’s an adventure that teaches us that what makes you different can be what makes you special.
Because of his shiny nose, Rudolph doesn’t feel like he belongs in Christmastown and sets off to find a place that accepts him. Along his journey, he encounters fellow misfits, only to realize that home is where he has belonged the whole time. When a storm threatens to keep Santa’s sleigh from taking flight, it’s up to Rudolph to save Christmas!

2025-12-20 18:30 - 22:30 | Stonefield Cellars Winery, 8220 NC-68, Stokesdale, NC, 27357, United States
Reservations are Required for this Event
Soup & Sing is a combination pot-luck dinner, jam session, and folk gathering for local musicians/singers and music lovers that harkens back to a time when there were no radios or TVs and music was what we made together, face to face, an essential part of our soul as necessary as the food that nourished our bodies. Many different genres of music may be represented during the evening (bluegrass, celtic, blues, folk, rock, gospel, etc.), but usually it is acoustic (we do mike vocals though, so singers can be heard). Even if you are not a musician as long as you’re a fan of Stonefield Cellars that loves wine and music, you are welcome to come. We appreciate your support of local music and local wine! (Wine sales provide the financial support to make this event possible.
If you have questions about this event, please contact Natalie at nwurz@stonefieldcellars.com
