Santa and Mrs. Claus arrive at 2nd & PCH in style, bringing twinkling lights and holidays cheer as they participate in the Tree Lighting ceremony. This year's tree stands 52.5' tall, making it the tallest real tree in Long Beach.

Highlights of the evening include a live performance by SZN4 from Building the Band, and a fireworks spectacular that lights up the sky.

The first RSVP’d guests to check in at the 2nd & PCH booth between 3pm and 5pm  receive a complimentary light wand to help light the tree.

Other activities through the evening including a craft station, a photo booth, character meet-and-greets, airbrush tattoos, and balloon art, all running until 9 pm.
