Illuminations Tour tickets now on sale

McIntyre & Moore is now selling tickets for the Somerville Arts Council's Illuminations Trolley Tour, which will take place on Saturday, December 15. This event always sells out, so get your tickets soon.

Some members of this LJ community are leading a few of the tours; if you're one of them, please step forward. I'll be one of the greeters at City Hall from 6 to 8 pm.

Yikes, thanks for the heads-up. The website had previously been claiming that tickets went on sale this Wednesday. I guess that has changed? I better stop by there tonight.

How does one get to be a guide? I've always wanted to do it (and have been told by many friends that I'm made for it). Thanks!

it's SO MUCH FUN

I took a bunch of friends and their kids last year and we had a blast. The refreshments and such at City Hall afterwards were lame -- there were a few frosted cookies and some dreggs of cider, IIRC -- but the trolley ride and the extravaganza is worth the ticket price.

I too was surprised at how quickly tickets sold out. I agree with the mom upthread ... it really can be quite an ordeal if you don't have a lot of flexibility.

I have to do the self-drive tour this year which wont be as much fun, but will allow for more candid commentary. :-)
