One of Atlanta’s favorite holiday traditions is all set to ring in the most wonderful time of the year. Vinings Jubilee’s dazzling Christmas lights will be turned on at the district’s beloved tree lighting ceremony.
Taking place at 6-8 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 1 at the Tower Stage. The annual event transforms Vinings Jubilee into a holiday wonderland for the entire family to enjoy, and best of all, it is free for all to attend!
“The Annual Christmas Tree Lighting at Vinings Jubilee is one of our favorite events to host each year,” said David Cochran, CEO of Paces Properties. “For 37 years, we’ve welcomed families and friends as they come together from across Atlanta. For many, this is a holiday tradition that is looked forward to every year and we’re thrilled to be able to host the event once again.”
You may want to analyze your behavior this year too, as Santa Claus is going to be in attendance at this charming holiday festivity! Photo opportunities with Santa will be available, as well as other fun entertainment.
You can expect ornament decorating, balloon artists, face painting, a live puppet show, and even a train ride. There will also be take-home puppet packs provided by the Center for Puppetry Arts. We recently rounded up our favorite family-fun activities in A-Town, with the Puppetry attraction making the unmissable list.
The evening at Vinings will include classic Christmas carols performed by singing elves, Whitefield Academy Jazz band and the Campbell Middle School Chorus.
Before the celebrations begin, stop in for a bite or a sweet treat from one of Vinings’ delicious eateries which include Another Broken Egg Café, Café at Pharr, SOHO, Paces & Vine, Mellow Mushroom, Stockyard Burgers, Southern Baked Pie Company and Cold Stone Creamery.
