Tips & Advice
- Arrive when the gates open so you have time for hot cocoa, live music and Santa photos before the tree is lit.
- Dress warmly for an evening outdoors at Children's Wonderland Park, since the tree lighting takes place after dark.
- Bring your phone or camera, because Santa is on hand for photos during the celebration.
- If you'd like to help keep this Vallejo tradition going, donate to GVRD and write 'tree lighting' in the notes.
