An Uncommon Evening
As outdoor skating season descends upon us, the Boston Common Frog Pond stands as a reminder that winter fun is just around the corner. Combine this with the illumination of holiday lights, and you’re suddenly smack-dab in a winter wonderland. This delightful combination reaches a crescendo November 30 from 5–6 p.m. when the Frog Pond hosts its annual Skating Spectacular, a showcase mounted by the Skating Club of Boston that features a slew of top-notch competitive solo and group figure skaters. All of this is followed by the official Boston Common Tree Lighting ceremony, hosted by Boston Mayor Marty Walsh. Public skating is open following the event, allowing visitors to cap off a perfect evening of holiday fun.
