OnMilwaukee reported in July that The Miracle on 2nd Street pop-up cocktail bar would return to Tin Widow for a second holiday season, but now the opening date has been announced. The Christmas-and-cocktails wonderland will kick off on Friday, Nov. 29 and run until the New Year.
Started in New York in 2014 and now in 100 locations, the Miracle Christmas pop-up concept will decorate the Walker's Point lounge with Christmas lights, Christmas ornaments galore, classic Christmas music and all-around the kitschiest of holiday cheer.
