The city of Boston’s signature holiday celebrations is back!
The official holiday season of the city will kick off with the lighting of Boston’s official Christmas tree and the trees throughout Boston Common and the Public Garden.
The tree is a special one and has a long history with Nova Scotia. It all started on December 6, 1917 when two ships exploded in Halifax Harbor killing almost 2000 people and injuring hundreds more. Within 24 hours, a train loaded with supplies and emergency personnel was making its way from Boston to Nova Scotia. In gratitude to this, Nova Scotia has been sending Boston a tree every year as thanks.
This makes the celebration a lot more meaningful, does it not? So head out and hold this dear feeling of kinship as you enjoy this beautiful evening.
