Civic Center Plaza Holiday Tree Lighting

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Join us for a festive evening at Civic Center Plaza as we illuminate the holiday season! Happening rain or shine!

The annual Civic Center Plaza Tree Lighting event returns December 3, 4-7pm! Add this fun, free, family-friendly event to your holiday calendar; featuring festive performances, with the night's lineup including music, performances, and appearances from The Tap Dancing Christmas Trees, Christmas VIPs and the man-of-the-hour: Santa!

The event also features "snow" flurries, where kids (and kids at heart) can twirl and dance through the falling snow, and a toy giveaway for the first 500 children 12-and-under, led by Another Planet Entertainment and the San Francisco Police Department, with the Civic Center Community Benefit District.

In the Makers Village, SF Etsy will lead holiday-themed activities (Santa letter writing station! Ornament making! More!) and the San Francisco Public Library will host a book giveaway. Festive bites will be available for purchase, along with a full bar featuring seasonal favorites.

The event takes place across from an illuminated City Hall in Civic Center Plaza. Event begins promptly at 4pm, with the lighting of Civic Center's 50-foot noble fir at 5:30pm by Mayor Daniel Lurie.
