Start January off right with a trio of events that ring in 2020 with style. The family-friendly outdoor celebration First Night Boston once again takes over several sites in Back Bay and downtown on December 31, with highlights including the Boston Common Frog Pond Skating Spectacular at 5:30 p.m. and Family Fireworks display at 7 p.m. There’s also midnight fireworks over Boston Harbor along with a countdown and pyrotechnic display in Copley Square (pictured). For indoor events, enjoy the annual New Year’s Eve Boston Pops concert at Symphony Hall featuring the Boston Pops Swing Orchestra and The Hot Sardines, as well as performances on New Year’s Eve and Day by Boston Baroque in Harvard Square.
