About the event
Something New is bringing the fun to City of Redlands for the annual Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony and Market! We are featuring 4 carnival games to keep families entertained and playing all evening long alongside live musical performances, free hot cocoa, children's crafts, bounce houses, and photos with Santa.
The highlight of the evening takes place at 6:00 PM when City Council members turn on the switch at Ed Hales Park, lighting the official downtown Christmas tree and sparkling light displays all down East State Street. Bring the whole family downtown to celebrate the start of the season!
