Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony at Bayfront Holiday Village
Event Information
About this Event
Christmas Tree Lighting will begin at 7:30PM sharp.
The iconic 50-foot tree that sits in the middle of the park as the center and focal point of the Bayskate roller-skating rink at Bayfront Holiday Village, will receive a celebrity filled countdown and illumination on Saturday, November 30 at 7PM in Bayfront Park, Downtown Miami. South Florida celebrities and dignitaries will be on-hand to light the tree, including Mayor Francis Suarez of the City of Miami and Commissioner Joe Carollo, Chairman of the Bayfront Park Trust, NBC6 and Telemundo 51 on-air personalities. Enrique Santos from Tu949 will host the event, along with Santa and his helpers to ensure the animated LED tree lights up for the very first time.
“This is a special tree, because after the initial lighting ceremony, we will have mini lighting ceremonies every night all the way through Christmas. Not just every night, but every hour,” says Tony Albelo, SWARM CEO and event organizer. Each night starting at 8PM, the park will become quiet, the music will rev up, and the tree will display one of the most beautifully animated light shows ever sequenced to three different festive musical shows produced by Grammy-winning producer A.T. Molina.
With the lighting of the 50-ft animated tree, Bayfront Holiday Village will be officially open to everyone looking to enjoy the picture-perfect, outdoor, holiday venue filled with larger-than-life holiday displays, waterfront roller-skating, local vendors, nightly music and top food and drink offerings.
