 Baltimore, if listeners are wondering what to do this week, the city is absolutely buzzing with holiday energy and end-of-year excitement.

Let’s start right in the heart of downtown. At the Renaissance Baltimore Harborplace Hotel on East Pratt Street, Dave Couser’s 20th Annual Christmas Affair is wrapping up its big anniversary celebration. According to Eventbrite, this long-running party brings together stylish Baltimoreans for an evening of dancing, laughter, and “celebrating the good life,” with VIP tables available and paid parking right at the hotel. It’s 21 and over, so think dressed-up vibes, cocktails, and a very grown-up holiday dance floor.

Just a short walk away, listeners can lean into some culture with a twist. The National Edgar Allan Poe Theatre is presenting “A Christmas Carol for Edgar Allan Poe” at Motor House on West North Avenue. WYPR’s community calendar explains that this original play imagines what Dickens’ classic would look like if it were written about America’s master of horror himself. Performances run through this evening, with a matinee and evening show, giving listeners a chance to savor something spooky, literary, and festive all at once.

If music is more your speed, there are two big options. First, the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra is presenting its Holiday Pops concert at the Joseph Meyerhoff Symphony Hall. The BSO’s own site describes it as part of their Celebrations Collection Holiday Series, with seasonal favorites and a festive atmosphere, plus treats from Codetta Bake Shoppe in the lobby. Later tonight, Visit Baltimore highlights a Candlelight Tribute to Drake at the Maryland Center for History and Culture. Under a room filled with glowing candles, a string quartet plays hits like God’s Plan, One Dance, and Hold On, We’re Going Home. It’s a perfect date-night option for listeners who love modern music but want a classy setting.

Family in town? The National Aquarium’s daily schedule lists a 10:30 a.m. Animal Encounter at the Harbor Overlook, included with admission. Listeners can get face-to-face with an Eastern box turtle, a bearded dragon, or even a hyacinth macaw while learning how to protect their habitats. It’s a quick but memorable experience for kids and adults.

Looking ahead to later this week and the weekend, the city’s nightlife heats up. Power Plant Live is already promoting NYE Live!, an all-access New Year’s Eve party that, according to Power Plant Live’s own event page, gives one ticket entry into seven different bars and nightclubs, with live DJs, a food buffet, non-alcoholic drinks, and party favors. VIP tickets even include a full beverage package. And for comedy fans, the Baltimore Comedy Factory is rolling out a string of special-event weekends with big-name comics like Tommy Davidson leading into New Year’s Eve and beyond, as listed on the club’s official calendar. It’s 21 and over with a two-drink minimum, so listeners can count on adult humor and a late-night crowd.

For a more low-key, local feel, Visit Baltimore spotlights the Winter Solstice Artist and Maker’s Market at Peabody Heights Brewery on East 30th Street. This event brings together BIPOC, queer, and trans artists and makers selling unique gifts, alongside seasonal drinks, food, and cozy brewery vibes. It’s a great midweek or weekend stop to support small businesses and pick up last-minute presents.

So whether listeners want candlelit Drake, Poe-meets-Christmas theater, symphonic holiday classics, a massive New Year’s blowout, or a craft market in a neighborhood brewery, Baltimore has a packed week of options waiting.
