Christmas in July

Update: Friday, July 25th 1:37 PM Hi everyone. We come with some bad news. Phaedra's fur baby got into some toilet cleaner and is not feeling so hot. As a result, Phaedra will not be able to make it tonight. All of us are totally bummed, but pups come first! Cassidy and I will be soldiering on with our intended "Christmas in July" party and will be refunding all tickets in the morning. If you want to still hang out and listen to Christmas tunes on Althea's patio, please come on down. Admission will be a mere $10 and there is a 2-for-1 offer on Eventbrite. Sorry for this disappointing news. Thanks, Mickey, Cassidy, and Phaedra 🎄&nbsp;Christmas in July&nbsp;at&nbsp;Althea&nbsp;🎄 Friday, July 25th&nbsp;| 9pm-12am | Central Square, Cambridge, MA Who says you have to wait until December to sleigh? ❄️✨ Join us at Althea for a fabulously festive night of mid-summer mischief, merry music, and magic under the disco lights!
