Events at Depot Square

Santa will be returning to the Peterborough Town Hall at 1 Grove St. in Peterborough for children to visit and get their pictures taken with this jolly old soul. At 6:00 p.m. join Luca Paris & the students of Mountain Shadows outside for the return of the Peterborough Tree Lighting ceremony. Cookies and hot chocolate will be available for everyone before and after the tree lighting in the Town Hall. All are welcome, including your pets, so bring your cameras and/or phones and we can help so you can be in the picture, too! It's FREE. Come one, come all!

It’s impossible to imagine the winter holidays without Carolers. They are as iconic for the season as Christmas trees and eggnog.  Carolers brave the frigid winter air to sing holiday well wishes in neighborhoods and churches.  Whether it’s a group of friends and family or strangers, caroling is one of the most favored ways for people to get into the holiday spirit. Join the tradition and get into the Holiday Spirit while listening to the Carolers on the Patio of Twelve Pine in Depot Square! Bring the whole family and sing along……….Stay tuned to see the list of Caroling Groups! Fridays 4pm to 7pm, Saturdays and Sundays 11am to 5pm. Specific start date to be announced soon! Twelve Pine will have hot chocolate, cider and homemade cookies waiting for you inside!!! Watch for dates and times on Depot Square Facebook and on the Depot Square website!
