Noel Lounge at the McCormick House

The Noël Lounge adds a seated food and drink experience to Christmas at Cantigny. Located at McCormick House, it offers seasonal cocktails, holiday dishes and a quieter setting for conversation during a visit to the light show.

What to expect

Reservations require a $20 deposit for each person, including children and infants; the deposit is applied to the final bill. Light Show admission is purchased separately. Cantigny asks guests to book the lounge and their Light Show ticket for the time they intend to attend the lounge and follow the arrival guidance in the confirmation email.

Plan your visit

The compact seating layout does not accommodate strollers or high chairs, and the seasonal menu does not offer substitutions or a children’s menu. The organizer recommends the experience primarily for adults and older guests. Families with young children can review the dining option at Le Jardin instead.

Listed date: Thursday, December 17, 2026 at 4:30 pm–9:00 pm Central Time. Location: Cantigny, Wheaton.
