Holiday Tree Lighting Ceremony at Belmont Lake State Park
The Belmont Lake State Park holiday tree lighting features live holiday music, an ice sculpting demonstration, holiday displays, a magic show, a juggler and even a fireworks display over the lake.
Prior to the lighting of the tree by Santa Claus, traditional holiday music will be sung by the choruses of North Babylon School District on the front lawn of the Long Island State Parks Headquarters at Belmont Lake State Park. After Santa and his helpers light the tree, there will be a spectacular fireworks display over Belmont Lake.
Activities begin at 4pm and include an ice sculpting demonstration, holiday displays, a magic show, and a juggler. There will be food and merchandise available for purchase. All activities are outside so please dress accordingly. Attendees are asked to bring a nonperishable food item to be collected by Long Island Cares.
This event is sponsored by New York State Parks- Long Island Region, the Natural Heritage Trust, Cox Media Group (WBAB 102.3FM and WBLI 106.1 FM Radio Stations), Tragar, Renewal by Andersen, New York Cancer and Blood Specialists, and New York Life.
