Grand Illumination Bar Hop!

Kick off the holiday season! We'll meet at PINS to start our lights tour of The Strand and The Yard at Easton (the hip, far north section). Take your eyes to the sky around 7PM and watch as over two-million lights simultaneously illuminate Easton for the season. **WHAT**: We'll hop from PINS to nearby Forbidden Root for eats? Beeline for cocktails? a Coopers Hawk wine tasting? and The Yard for festive fun (last year they hosted Silent Disco)! The Bar Hop will be fluid so groups can walkabout and linger at a spot or move on to another, all surrounding the wonderful contemporary holiday lights at The Yard. **AFTER PARTY**: Those who want to hang around can reserve lanes at PINS or groove at Beeline or sit around giant fire pits. **PARKING**: Best bet are garages on either side of PINS.
