About a week ago I posted about Historic Salem, Inc. needing volunteers for Christmas in Salem this December. I hadn’t created a separate post yet for the 2019 house tours, so today here we are! Details are per their website.
“Christmas in Salem, thought to be the nation’s longest running holiday house tour, invites visitors to tour historic homes in the Historic Derby Street Neighborhood from December 6th through December 8th. Homes will be beautifully decorated for the holiday season and will be open for tours throughout the weekend.
A Preview will be held on Friday, December 6, 2019, from 5:30–8:30 pm and will feature selected homes. On Saturday, December 7, 2019 from 10:30 am–4:30 pm and Sunday, December 8, 2019 from 11:30 am–4:30 pm all sites will be open for tours.
Christmas in Salem has become far more than a house tour. It’s now a citywide event for both residents and out-of-town visitors. There are local attractions, walking tours, live music, and discounts available for all tour goers.
This year marks the 40th anniversary of Historic Salem, Inc.’s largest fundraiser. Always held the first weekend in December, Christmas in Salem is a wonderful opportunity to visit one of the region’s most storied city. Christmas in Salem encourages tour goers to enjoy everything the city has to offer, including local restaurants and shops during the holiday season. A complimentary trolley takes visitors from downtown parking locations to the tour route, providing historical information and a festive ride that will get everyone in the holiday spirit.
Tickets may be purchased in advance beginning in October, by clicking here or by calling Historic Salem, Inc. at 978.745.0799. Deadline for advance ticket sales is Thursday, December 5th at midnight. Christmas in Salem is presented by Historic Salem, Inc. an advocacy group dedicated to preserving Salem’s historic resources and educating the community on their value.”
Christmas in Salem takes place this year on December 6, 7 and 8. Tickets will become available in October at this link here. Enjoy!! <3
