Kick off the holiday season at City Place’s annual Oh, What Fun! Holiday Tree Lighting celebration, marking the official illumination of the community’s spectacular 40-foot floating holiday tree and the return of its signature Giant Gingerbread Village. Rising from the pond system at City Place Park, the shimmering tree serves as the centerpiece of the waterfront holiday experience, while the immersive Gingerbread Village invites visitors along a candy-lined path past oversized gingerbread figures and cookie trees to a whimsical 16-foot gingerbread house and 12-foot windmill.
The free happening will feature snow, live music, seasonal crafts, photos with Santa, train rides, balloon artists, face painting, a holiday market and a visiting reindeer.
