Tips & Advice
- Arrive early to secure a good spot for Santa's arrival and the tree lighting ceremony, especially if you want to be close to the main stage.
- Dress warmly in layers, as the event takes place outdoors in December, and bring blankets for extra comfort while enjoying the festivities.
- Have your camera ready for photos with Santa and the beautifully lit tree, but be prepared for potential lines to see him.
- Check the weather forecast beforehand and bring an umbrella or rain gear if needed, as the event is held rain or shine.
- Consider bringing a small non-perishable food item to donate if a collection is being held, as many community events support local charities.
