Don’t miss this extraordinary free event perfect for all ages.

After the ice skating show, Mayor Marty Walsh will present The Boston Common Tree Lighting Ceremony to the community. This tree is a traditional gift from the province of Nova Scotia since 1917. You’ll also see Santa in addition to members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Enjoy music, warm refreshments, and lots of entertainment throughout the evening. The tree lights will go on just before 8:00 pm followed by fireworks!, and then the lights of all the other spectacular trees will follow throughout the Common and the Public Garden.

Let’s plan to meet at 6pm by the Park Street T station to wander through food vendors and other festivities before finding a good viewpoint for the lighting. Plan to dress warmly! Hope you will join us!
