Holiday Tree Lighting

🎄✨ Holiday Tree Lighting! ✨🎄

Join us on Thursday, December 4th from 5–8pm at the Regal Cinema Plaza in downtown Oceanside (401 Mission Avenue) for Oceanside’s annual Holiday Tree Lighting celebration!

🎨 Our Parks & Recreation craft booth opens at 5pm with ornament-making and coloring activities for kids.
💃 Kick off the evening with a festive performance by our instructor, Ms. Charlene’s dance students, starting at 5pm!
🎅 Snap a photo with Santa and receive a raffle ticket to redeem free milk and cookies (while supplies last)!

🚒 Santa will make a grand entrance on a fire truck between 5:45 and 6pm to help lead the tree lighting countdown at 6pm sharp!

🌟 The tree lighting ceremony begins right at 6pm, followed by Santa photos from 6:15–8pm.

🎶 6:30–7:30pm – Live performances by Robert Parker and Billy Galewood.
