We are ringing in the holiday season with our annual Holiday Tree Lighting celebration on Tuesday, December 3 from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Families and friends are invited to Plaza Park for a festive evening filled with holiday joy and cherished memories. The holiday tree will be illuminated at 7 p.m. as Santa Claus makes a grand entrance atop the San Gabriel Fire Department's vintage fire truck.
Community members are invited to enjoy a winter wonderland of free activities, including trackless train rides, a light tunnel, ornament decorating, hot cocoa, and photo opportunities with Santa. Heartwarming musical performances from the Dewey Woodcraft Rangers, Community Services Dance Classes, Roosevelt Elementary's Music Immersion Experience, and the San Gabriel High School Marching Band will bring the holiday spirit to life.
During this year's "Taste of San Gabriel," attendees can enjoy complimentary, bite-sized samples from some of San Gabriel's finest local restaurants and eateries, available while supplies last.
