2012 Events

Father's Day
Sunday, June 17
Fathers are treated with free admission when accompanied by their children.
Founders' Day
Saturday, July 7
Founder's Day is a joint celebration of Independence Day and the Museum's birthday (Our Museum was founded on July 5, 1939). Many trolleys in our collection that don't normally see regular service are brought out for exhibit. The favorite Trolley Parade provides an opportunity to see some of these cars moving and also includes a commentary with a history on each vehicle.
Moxie Day
Sunday, July 15
Sponsored by the New England Moxie Congress
The New England Moxie Congress comes to the Seashore Trolley Museum to hold its annual meeting, and with that meeting comes plenty of activity.  Come and see the Moxie model railroad and all kinds of Moxie memorabilia. Haven't had a taste of Moxie before? Give it a try and take a sip of Maine 's official soft drink. The Seashore Trolley Museum is proud to be a stop on the Maine Moxie Trail.
Pumpkin Patch Trolley 
Saturday & Sunday, September 22 & 23 and September 29 & 30
Event Hours: 11:00 am - 3:00 pm (Museum is open normal hours)

Free pumpkin for each admission.  Ride a trolley to the Pumpkin Patch where you can pick and paint a pumpkin. Then like the days of shipping packages by trolley, send your pumpkin back to the Visitor Center by trolley where you can pick it up after your trolley ride to Talbott Park .
Transit Day 
Saturday, October 6
This is a rare opportunity to see vehicles that are not usually on display as well as enjoy new experiences only possible during events like this one. See our bus collection out and on the move, take a ride on our newly reactivated trackless trolley line, or enjoy a ride on our New York and Boston subway cars.
Kennebunkport's Christmas Prelude
Friday, Saturday & Sunday, November 30, December 1 & 2 and 7, 8 & 9

While the Museum closes for the season at the end of October, we reopen for two weekends in December for everyone to enjoy a trolley ride in conjunction with Kennebunkport 's seasonal celebration. Being the holiday season, don't forget to stop in and check our selection of gifts in the Museum Store.
* Special fare applies to this event, $6.00 per person for a streetcar ride
