The festive season has arrived and everyone wants to get in on the party.

All throughout Maine, there will be plenty of holiday-themed adventures to go on, from visiting Kennebunkport's Prelude celebration to taking a cruise in Casco Bay with live music and a visit from Santa.

Typically, holiday-themed events are centered around all ages. But there are a handful of adults-only places that like to get it on the fun too.

And one of those places this year is the most well-known rooftop bar in Portland, Maine.

But when it reopens on Black Friday, it will become a 'Jingle Bar' through New Year's Eve.

There will be plenty of festive decor, with sparkling lights and lots of different photo locations to capture a perfect picture.

You may even get a chance to spot Santa's sleigh given the incredible view from the Top of the East.

The 'Jingle Bar' Will Have Holiday-Themed Drinks and Food Specials

While decking the bar with boughs of holly is wonderful, a classic bar like the Top of the East is definitely going to roll out a curated menu of signature holiday drinks.

The Top of the East also promises that there will be other limited-time specials at the 'Jingle Bar' throughout the event.

The Top of the East opens at 4pm and closes at 12am each day.
