About the event
The holiday season officially kicks off at Maritime Gloucester, and we’re excited to invite you to a festive waterfront celebration you won’t want to miss.
While you enjoy the Lobster Trap Tree Lighting next door, stop by Maritime Gloucester for FREE hot cocoa, festive crafts, and a special visit from Mr. & Mrs. Claus, who will arrive by boat at 3:30 PM! The Clauses will be available for photos throughout the afternoon, and Art Haven will be hosting a creative activity in the Ice House from 4:00–5:30 PM.
This event is free and open to the community, and we can’t wait to celebrate the season with you.
While you’re here for cocoa and holiday cheer, be sure to stop into the Maritime Gloucester Gift Shop, which will be open with extended hours (until 7pm!) during the Lobster Trap Tree Lighting. It’s the perfect chance to shop local, support our mission, and cross a few names off your holiday list.
