BOSTON — It’s the most wonderful time of the year and a new winter festival has opened in Boston.

Charlestown’s Hood Park has been transformed into a winter wonderland filled with twinkling lights, immersive experiences, and festive cheer.

The two-acre holiday festival opened on December 6th and runs most days in December and weekends in January through January 25.

The new experience will bring cheer to Charlestown. The festival features an artisan marketplace, a toy workshop, a life-size ice castle and gingerbread house, weekend meet-and-greets with Santa, ice skating, and the Après Ski Veuve Clicquot Gondola Lounge.
