One of the best things about the holiday season is all the festive events and attractions around town. Make the best of colder weather by checking out some local establishments that have decked out their space with fun, cheesy, and jubilant ornamentation. It can be challenging trying to find who is participating in pop-up holiday festivities, so we've taken it upon ourselves to share three entertaining and kitschy spots near our Cambridge apartments.

Après Pop-Up at Deck 12

Who said rooftops couldn't be enjoyed in the winter? Deck 12 has created an elaborate winter rooftop for all to enjoy, and yes, it's heated. Check out their ski-themed Après deck this month and enjoy delicious comfort food and drinks. Revel in the night while sitting in a gondola or chairs made of skis and getting toasty by a glowing fire.

Sippin' Santa at Shore Leave

Disco balls, lights, Santa in a Hawaiian shirt, and specialty drinks that involve whipped cream and candy canes -  are you interested yet? This popular pop-up is something all Bostonians look forward to in the wintertime. Shore Leave might be the kitschiest holiday bar yet and we can't wait to indulge in a sugary cocktail or mocktail.

Miracle Pop-Up at Mystic Station

If you're looking for a cozy bar with twinkle lights and holiday-themed mugs for purchase, Miracle Pop-Up is where it's at. Its intimate atmosphere provides the perfect setting for a first date or night out with friends. Every year they introduce new cocktail creations that can be enjoyed with or without alcohol.

Kitsche pop-ups - where quirky decor and seasonal cheer collide. We love exploring the area of which we live and we hope these pop-up bars bring you so much holiday cheer. Let us know your favorite thing about the holidays by scheduling a tour with Luxe at Alewife today.
