The Asa Waters Mansion warmly invites you to usher in the holiday season with A Night of Candlelight, Music & Merriment, an elegant evening of dining, live music, and festive celebration held under the beautifully lit tent. This event will take place on Sunday, December 7, 2025 at 5:00pm, immediately following the Millbury Chain of Lights tree lighting at 123 Elm Street, Millbury, Ma.

Returning for its second year, the evening promise’s guests an unforgettable holiday evening experience. Enjoy a candlelit seasonal buffet prepared by Executive Chef Mike Winslett, featuring a Prime Rib and Porchetta carving station, along with a fresh garden salad, sweet potato-toasted and cauliflower-cranberry winter salad, loaded baked potatoes, penne marinara, and seasonal vegetables. A welcome warm beverage, curated charcuterie spread, custom-crafted cocktails at the cash bar, and the enchanting live cello music of Cellist Skip Vankuske, setting the tone for a night of warmth and sophistication.

“This evening is such a beautiful way to kick off the Winter season,” said Traci Parath, Executive Director of Asa Waters Mansion. “The atmosphere under the tent, the music, and the candlelight, it all creates a truly magical experience. We are thrilled to share this celebration with our community. It is quickly becoming one of our favorite traditions!”
