Following on the success of the city’s continuing Open Newbury program, the inaugural Open
Newbury: Holiday Stroll transformed a stretch of Newbury Street into a pedestrian-only, vehicle-free
walkway on Sunday, Dec. 1.
Open Newbury, which the city launched in the summer of 2016 and continues to hold each summer,
opens up a mile-long, eight-block stretch from Berkeley Street to Massachusetts Avenue for shopping,
dining, and family-friendly activities.
Open Newbury: Holiday Stroll is scheduled to return from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 8,
and in case of inclement weather, a makeup date has been scheduled for Dec. 15.
