Tree for Boston Send-Off

Every year, Halifax sends a Christmas tree to Boston to thank them for their help and support during the 1917 Halifax Explosion. Before the tree begins its journey to Boston, a send-off ceremony takes place in the Parade Square. Complete with lights, fireworks, and live music, the celebration offers a real sense of pride for the city. Join the event and stay up to date on the tree’s whereabouts on its Facebook page!
