18th Annual Little Italy Tree Lighting And Christmas Village
December 3, 2016
FREECome down to Little Italy this holiday season and stroll the sidewalks filled with holiday cheer for the 18th Annual Little Italy Tree Lighting and Christmas Village on Saturday, Dec. 3, 2016 from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.
For the first time, Little Italy will close down India Street and have two holiday trees—one 25’ tower of over 1,000 gorgeous poinsettias in the middle of Piazza Basilone and the other, right outside what will be the new heart of Little Italy—Piazza Della Famiglia.
Families, friends and visitors will be able to experience a Christmas Village with seasonal vendors, festive décor, live music and entertainment, holiday treats, Santa Claus and more.
To kick off the night, Santa Claus will ride in on Little Italy Fire Engine 3 for meet and greets and photos with all the neighborhood kids and kids at heart. Seasonal vendors selling perfect stocking stuffers and select Little Italy Mercato vendors with holiday goodies will be lining India Street.
The Tree Lighting ceremonies will begin at 5:30 p.m.
