Manayunk Tree Lighting
Manayunk lights up for the holidays on November 14th from 5:30-7:00 p.m. with the annual tree lighting ceremony at Canal View Park (4418 Main Street). The night will host special guests and live performances by The City Belles, John Gilbride, Emily Drinker, Santa Claus! There will be tons of family fun with letters to Santa, ornament decorating, hot cocoa, glow giveaways, and a Santa meet & greet and photo-op in front of the tree. This year, Manayunk is debuting a brand new tree with festive lights, ornament, and topper. There’s a good chance Santa will be bringing some magical North Pole snow too, so get ready for a Manayunk winter wonderland! November 14th also marks the official launch of the 5th Annual Manayunk Gets Lit Decorating Competition between 50+ businesses in the district.
