Fun Globetrotters Basketball and Disney on Ice performances and another Disney on Ice giveaway!

During the winter break, we checked out the Globetrotters at the TD Garden and Disney on Ice at Boston University's Agganis Arena. The shows were fantastic and the kids had a great time.

The Globetrotters show was exciting and hilarious as usual with the Globies putting on their usual performance of fun times combined with some great basketball. As could be predicted, the Washington Generals tried to keep up with the Trotters in scoring but couldn't catch their lead.

The Trotters had some fun moments like their Lion King reenactment where they pick a young kid from the audience and raise them up - it was hilarious! They also had some acrobatic moves flipping up on top of the hoop to block a shot. We thoroughly enjoyed staying for their fifth quarter, the autograph session where fans young and old could go down courtside to meet the players and take photos with them and get their autographs. Certainly some fun memories made, for sure!

Agganis Arena was a great location to see Disney on Ice: Find your Hero! We arrived a little before the show and were able to find street parking just off Commonwealth Avenue. We went into the venue and the kids enjoyed the show. We enjoyed performances from Moana, Tangled, the Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and others!

We are excited to offer a family four-pack of tickets to the next Disney On Ice performance at the TD Garden, Frozen and Encanto, February 22 at 7pm. You can enter to win here:

Fun times with Blue Man Group, Disney on Ice for February Break

This February break, we had the opportunity to check out Blue Man Group at the Charles Playhouse and Disney on Ice at the TD Garden

BLUE MAN GROUP

We were excited to see Blue Man Group come back to performing since the start of the pandemic.

The check-in process at the Charles Playhouse was seamless and we were comforted knowing that they were still checking vaccination records as well as requiring that people wore masks during the performance. There was a great area by the bathrooms where kids could play with the same pipes that the Blue Men were making music with.

While the Blue Men were celebrating 25 years in Boston, the last time I went to a show was easily 20 years ago. It was just how I remembered - a lot of fun beats and music along with zany antics and the best part? The Blue Men are able to communicate without saying a word! It is so great! They also had some fun videos that would be shown where you could see the crazy stuff that goes on inside your brain (the hellawack shiznit) and they also showed if one of the blue men swallowed a camera. 

One of the most amazing parts was when one of the Blue Men caught marshmallows in his mouth - we counted and out of the 31 marshmallows thrown, he ate all of them and kept them all in his mouth, except for TWO, which he then carefully spit out of his mouth in a mountain of marshmallow which he then put a $5,000 price tag on it as a piece of art. Ha!

The kids absolutely loved it and my little guy was laughing most of the time from the silly actions and the fun music. We didn't take any pictures inside the show because they had asked us not to, but we did take pictures before and after. I felt bad for the cleaning crew since there was a lot of paper to clean up but then again, I realize this is a really clear explanation of why you pay facility fees for these types of shows!

DISNEY ON ICE

We had the opportunity to see Disney on Ice at the TD Garden in Boston. There were a lot more people there than I had expected but the show was equally as good as the one during the holiday break, with different characters and a different story line.

It had a bunch of songs from classics as well as some of the newer shows and we enjoyed them all! It was neat to see the great costumes as well as the special effects for some of the numbers.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time and strongly recommend it for a fun thing to do during break!

Looking for something fun to do this weekend? Check out Disney on Ice and Harlem Globetrotters in Boston, Providence and Lowell!

Are you looking for something fun to do this weekend? We had the chance to check out Disney on Ice at Agganis Arena in Boston through Sunday, January 2 and the Harlem Globetrotters in Providence on December 30. The Globetrotters will be going to Lowell's Tsongas Center on Sunday, January 2nd!

Disney on Ice's new show, Mickey's Search Adventure, is a new take on many of your favorite Disney classics. Feld Entertainment uses the latest technology, acrobatics and updated costumes to bring the shows we love to life. It was an awesome adventure we went on with our kids.  

Mickey's search party was a great way for the kids to interact and kept their interest going strong through the whole show.  They loved figuring out the clues and the magic meter that filled up after each movie/ice show.  There was so much to watch that it was hard to know where to keep your eyes.  There were  people doing acrobatics, others on stilts, more on trampolines! The little mermaid scene had awesome colors and terrific costumes.  Aladdin was a treat to watch. The Genie was great and our kids were thrilled with the fireworks.

If you're looking for something fun to do, check out Disney on Ice at Agganis Arena! If you are too busy, don't worry - they are coming back in February at the TD Garden!




Harlem Globetrotters Bring All-New Spread Game to Lowell’s Tsongas Center on January 2nd

We had the chance to check out The Harlem Globetrotters yesterday at the Dunkin Donuts Center for their Spread Game Tour and we loved every minute of it!

The Globies brought their usual antics against the Washington Generals but also played a great game. We loved the jokes and the craziness on the court and even had the chance to meet the entire team after the game as they stayed to sign autographs for fans young and old! There is still a chance to check them out Saturday in Worcester and then Sunday in Lowell!

The World-Famous Harlem Globetrotters are bringing their newly reimagined Spread Game Tour to the Tsongas Center in Lowell on Sunday, January 2nd at 2:00 pm.

Disney on Ice in Boston for February Break through Sunday 2/26

Disney on Ice: Follow Your Heart is in Boston for the rest of this week at TD Garden and we had the chance to check it out for opening night last week and it did not disappoint! It starts out with a story from Disney's Inside Out which was a new experience for us. It had classics like Snow White, Cinderella, Toy Story and Beauty and the Beast along side new movies like Finding Dory, Inside Out and Frozen. We found that it seemed like it would go from one song right to another but it was cool how Feld Entertainment would use the Inside Out theme and emotions to weave a story.

During the last school break, we saw Disney on Ice: Dare to Dream at Boston University's Agganis Arena, which had some of the same songs but a different story line. We absolutely love Disney and enjoy when the shows come to town!

If you're interested, there's still tickets and seats available for Follow Your Heart at TD Garden which runs through Sunday February 26. For more information visit disneyonice.com
