Bad Gingerbread House Competition
Calling all bad bakers and peeps who burn water!! Enter to compete in the 4th annual bad bake-off or just come witness (and judge) the monstrosities! Decorations can be anything…candy, frosting, toys, spraypaint, rocks, nails, whatevs. And everyone are judges!
Fugly Sweater Contest
You may THINK you have an ugly sweater, but is it FUGLY? Hit that thrift store! Slap on some holiday crap! Glue on some disturbing things and light it up! We want to see the worst things ever imaginable on a human body!
Not-So-Silent Art Auction
Generously donated by various artists of the DAMNED Exhibition and the Krampus Bazaar, you can bid to take home some amazing fine art while helping the homeless! 100% of all auction funds go directly to Burners Without Borders Detroit to help purchase much needed supplies to create survival backpacks for the homeless (click here for details).
AND NEW FOR 2019
The Detroit Krampusnacht Parade will take over the streets outside the venue to begin the festivities and conclude with first annual Krampus Costume Contest!
BUT MOST IMPORTANT
Krampus Night is a toy and food card drive for needy kids and the homeless! Bring in some new toys or $5 fast food gift cards and get in on the cheap (and some good feels)! All toy donations are taken directly to a Toys For Tots center to benefit less fortunate children during the holidays and all food card donations go to Burners without Borders Detroit to help feed the homeless.
