Boston Common Tree Lighting Is December 3, 6 to 8 p.m.: the Nova Scotia Gift Tree, Free to Watch

Wednesday, November 4, 2026 · Events · GSM News

Boston Common (139 Tremont St) in Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts, hosts the City of Boston's official tree lighting on December 3 from 6 to 8 p.m.: the mayor lights the tree gifted by Nova Scotia, free to watch from the park with no tickets (cost: free).

The gift tree continues a century-old tradition dating to Boston's aid after the 1917 Halifax explosion. The Commonwealth Avenue Mall lights follow at about 8 p.m. The city's Copley Square lighting on November 30 and the Columbus Park trellis lighting on November 23 are covered separately.

Expect crowded sidewalks near the Common; check the City of Boston website for street and transit updates.
