Step into a magical storied night at The Charles Hotel in Harvard Square with actor/comedian Jimmy Tingle as host, as our 40th Annual Tree Lighting Celebration takes on a literary twist inspired by the whimsical world of Dr. Seuss!
This year’s celebration offers even more reasons to gather and glow — including a life-sized gingerbread house, festive drinks and snacks, an appearance from Santa himself, cozy lounges, and special guests. Enjoy live holiday music filling the air, and celebrate community, creativity, and a touch of magic as we light up Harvard Square for the holiday season!
