Gather with family and friends for Walnut Creek’s Annual Holiday Tree Lighting Ceremony, a festive celebration filled with lights, laughter, and community cheer.
Join us on Friday, November 21 at 5:30pm in Civic Park (1375 Civic Drive, Walnut Creek). Enjoy complimentary hot cocoa provided by Walnut Creek Downtown, listen to joyful carolers, and watch as the park comes alive when the holiday tree sparkles to life.
Plus, don’t miss a special Meet & Greet with Frosty the Snowman to celebrate the opening night of Walnut Creek on Ice, just a few steps away in Civic Park!
This event is free and open to the public, and everyone is welcome to join in the fun and share in the spirit of the season. Together, we’re lighting up downtown with festive decorations, sparkling lights, and holiday magic all season long.
