Trees in the Rigging ~ Land + Boat Parade

This popular event is back and begins the Essex holiday season! Parade step-off is at 4:30 from the Town Hall. The “lantern-lit” carol stroll led by the Essex Sailing Masters Fife & Drum Corps, wends its way to the Connecticut River Museum where spectators can enjoy the festive displays created by the procession of local boaters on the Connecticut River. Of course our doors will be open  before, during and after! Our Wine Bar, typically closed on Sundays, will open its doors at 4:30 for drinks and dinner! Let the holiday games begin!
