About this event

TREE LIGHTING CEREMONY/SANTA & MRS. CLAUS WELCOME HOLIDAY KICKOFF

GATES OPEN AT 5 P.M. Kick off the holidays in style with your friends and neighbors at this community celebration! Count down with the Mayor Brian Hardy, Village Clerk Maureen Grady-Perovich, and Village Trustees to light all of the trees and stroll through Fox Pointe as it sparkles with lights and showcases beautifully decorated holiday trees—each one sponsored and adorned by local businesses and organizations.

After the official lighting of the trees, let’s gather to welcome Santa and Mrs. Claus to their Lansing home! They will begin meeting with children and families tonight, 6-8 p.m., so get your lists ready and be extra good!
