If you’ve always wanted to take in the scene from the Observation Deck of the Terminal Tower, this is your year. Over three weekends in December, Destination Cleveland will be hosting Illuminate CLE Holiday Sip & See, a limited-time holiday pop-up that combines stellar views with holiday cheer.

The ticketed events take place over eight nights, between 6 and 9 p.m., December 4-6, 11-13 and 18-19. Tickets are $10 and must be purchased in advance by clicking here.

Small groups are led up to the 42nd-level Observation Deck every 45 minutes, where they are met by a “festive, photo-worthy experience” with a seasonal bar serving hot chocolate, cocktails, local beer, wine and non-alcoholic favorites. A keepsake station will feature a professional calligrapher creating custom ornaments for each guest.

The pop-ups are ideally timed to take in the views of Illuminate CLE, a new holiday light show taking place in and around Public Square.
