It’s starting to get cold in Boston and chances are you’re mentally preparing yourself to start hibernating for the winter. It’s pretty easy from here on out to return home from classes, stay inside and drink hot chocolate/coffee/ your hot beverage of choice instead of adventuring around the city. BUT I’m here to try and steer you away from that mindset because although the city gets cold, Boston doesn’t stop! Welcome to the approaching winter season all you Californians/ Floridians, where we still function regardless of what wrath Mother Nature brings upon us.
Don’t let your adventurous side stop just because of the chill! Here are some great events happening around the city in the coming months that I look forward to all year:
-Ghost Tours in Salem, MA
Now through Halloween
-Ice Skating at the Frog Pond on Boston Common
mid November
-Boston Christmas Festival & Gingerbread House Competition
Nov 8-10 at Seaport World Trade Center
-Christmas at Newport Mansions
you have to take a trip to Newport, RI for this but it’s worth the drive!
(this is a tour through the Mansions, if you’re into history you’ll love it)
starts November 23
-Faneuil Hall Christmas Tree Lighting
(also check out BLINK! Light show)
November 23
-Boston Ballet Nutcracker
November 29- December 29
-Boston Pops Holiday Show
Boston Symphony Orchestra
December 4 -24
-First Night Boston- Boston’s celebration of the new year

(Am I jumping the gun by talking about Christmas before Halloween has even passed? Maybe…)
