Holiday Tree Lighting

Meet us on the Plaza for our annual Tree Lighting, sponsored by Fidelity Bank and benefitting Ronald McDonald House Charities. The tree lights up at 6 PM, and from 4 to 7 PM there’s plenty to do while you wait: photos with Santa, visits with holiday characters, live entertainment, and an appearance from the Metropolitan Ballet. Snack on food and beverage samples from Trader Joe’s, sip hot cocoa from Newport Grill, and get ahead on holiday shopping at Bradley Fair's businesses. Take a ride on the Bradley Fair Express, an electric train that carries the whole family on a journey through the center from 4 to 7 PM. Tickets are $5 per person for ages 5 and up, and children under 5 ride free. A portion of proceeds benefits Ronald McDonald House Charities. Tickets are also available on-site the day of, but card payment only, no cash.
