Sharing is caring!

The Hingham Downtown Association keeps Hingham’s holiday traditions alive with the 37th  annual Christmas in the Square on Friday December 7  evening and on Saturday  December 8th.

Check out all the Christmas Holiday Events South Shore Boston 

 

A  beloved tradition for all ages, Christmas in the Square is old fashioned seasonal, community fun with sparkling lights throughout town, a police escort of Santa on a fire truck and visits with him on South Street, shops open late and offering special treats, and live music performed by local musicians and student groups.

 

Christmas in the Square will shine even brighter with our first Annual Luminaria Festival. Help support this beloved Hingham tradition by purchasing a Luminaria candle bag. The Luminaria’s will Light up the Square on December 7th, the night of Christmas in the Square. They can be purchased by individuals or families with a donation of $20. Add your family name, greeting or in-memory-of message to the bag to create a special new tradition for your family.

 

Continue the festivities on Saturday With a day of shopping in downtown Hingham Square with tons of kids activities, horse-drawn hayrides, music, and more. Hope to see you there!
