The festivities will begin at 5 pm with the arrival of Santa on a Needham Fire Truck. There will be performances from the Needham High Chorale, Plugged In band, and the Olin College Fire Arts Club. This year, a special guest who loves the cold will be on hand and is sure to put smiles on the faces of all those in attendance.

Following the lighting, children and families are invited to visit and take photos with Santa. 

The event is free and open to the public.
