|
| Sat 12/18Boston MetroIlluminations Tour (Xmas Lights in Somerville) |
 |
| The holiday event of the week is in Somerville, where you can take a 45 minute trolley tour around town to look at the most decorated houses. I’ve been and highly recommend it, but you need to buy a ticket in advance. And although it’s the best metro attraction, if you’re willing to drive outbound, any of the holiday light attractions is better. They will also have caroling and refreshments and a bicycle tour of the same locations. tours leave regularly from 4:30 to 9:15pm. Somerville City Hall, Somerville, MA.617.625.6600 ext. 2985. see details on the complete Events Insider |

| Sat 12/18Boston MetroWinter Solstice Celebration (Belmont) |
 |
| 1-3pm. This one claims to have “traditional solstice activities”. Traditional? How traditional, like a human sacrifice? Habitat, 10 Juniper Road, Belmont, MA.617-489-5050. see details on the complete Events Insider |
