Join us for the annual countdown to lighting of the iconic Monterey cypress tree in Golden Gate Park's east end--a San Francisco holiday tradition that began in 1929.
The annual tree lighting celebration, held by the San Francisco Recreation and Park Department, features live music, cookie decorating, carnival rides, food trucks, and more! Free bike valet provided by SF Bicycle Coalition!
Known as Uncle John's Tree in honor of Golden Gate Park's designer and first park superintendent John McLaren, the more than 135-year-old giant cypress was first illuminated with 800 bulbs on McLaren's 84th birthday.
