Kick off the holiday season on November 23rd by watching Santa’s arrival at Pasadena’s biggest tree lighting ceremony, and witness all the excitement as Mr. Clause lights the 35-foot tree. Taking place at the Courtyard at One Colorado, the 90th Rose Queen will be there for all of the festivities- which include holiday sing-a-longs- in one of her first public appearances.
Presented by One Colorado, the Old Pasadena Management District, Pasadena Star-News and the Pasadena Jaycees, the ceremony is a free community event, though everyone is asked to bring an unwrapped book or toy for the Charles Cherniss Tournament of Toys toy drive. From 6:30- 9:00 p.m., Santa will be taking pictures with anyone- child or adult- who donates a toy.
Festivities begin at 6:00 p.m. in the courtyard at One Colorado, the outdoor entertainment, dining, and shopping district in Old Pasadena. For more information, call (626) 546- 1066 or visit www.onecolorado.com.
