Raleigh’s Annual Tree Lighting Celebration is Here!

Twinkling lights, local delights, and festive vibes!

Get ready to sleigh the holiday season at Downtown Raleigh’s Annual Tree Lighting! On Friday, November 22 from 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm, Lichtin Plaza will transform into a winter wonderland with live performances, a vendor market, and free Santa pics. Watch the tree light up at 6:15 PM (live-stream it on ABC11 if you can’t make it). With food trucks like HotBox Pizza and Cousins Maine Lobster, brews from Wye Hill Brewing, and Raleigh’s iconic Sip N’ Stroll, this event is a festive feast for all your senses.

This isn’t sponsored (we’d tell you if it was). We just think Santa and food trucks make an unbeatable combo.
