From the City of Sugar Land:
The City of Sugar Land Parks & Recreation Department invites residents and families to kick off the holiday season at the 24th Annual Christmas Tree Lighting, presented by St. Michaels Elite Hospital. The community celebration takes place Friday, Nov. 20, 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Sugar Land Town Square, 2711 Plaza Dr.
Thousands of residents gather in the plaza each year to welcome the holiday season. This year’s event will feature performances by local school choirs, family-friendly entertainment throughout the plaza and fun filled holiday activities. Families can take free photos with Santa, sponsored by Sugar Land Emergency Room, and stop by Santa’s Workshop, sponsored by H-E-B, where children can discover their very own elf name. The evening will wrap up with Santa lighting the Christmas tree, officially kicking off the holiday season in Sugar Land.
Don’t miss the Merry & Bright photobooth sponsored by St. Michael’s Elite Hospital, to capture holiday memories with family and friends. Attendees can treat themselves to hot chocolate, “dirty” sodas, desserts, kettle corn, Vietnamese coffee, Christmas decor, and more available for purchase from on-site vendors.
Admission is free. For those looking to avoid parking near Town Square, the city will offer free shuttle services to and from Mercer Stadium between 4:30 – 9:30 p.m.
