Salem’s So Sweet Festival, Salem MA — Feb. 7-9, 2020

The Salem’s So Sweet Festival is one of my absolute favorites. I *love* going around and checking out all of the ice sculptures, taking pictures of each one to be shared here on my blog the same day. If you are planning a winter trip into the witch city, I’d strongly suggest planning it around this festival. Details are per Salem Main Streets.

“Salem Main Streets, the Salem Chamber of Commerce, Destination Salem, and local retailers, restaurants, and businesses invite you to attend the 18th annual Salem’s So Sweet Chocolate & Ice Sculpture Festival. A decadent tradition of delectable chocolate, sparkling ice sculptures, and Valentine’s Day shopping…don’t miss Salem’s sweetest event of the year!
