Looking for a way to get into the holiday spirit this season? Here are three things to check out in New Haven this December 2022.
City of New Haven Tree Lighting
Meet us on the New Haven Green this Thursday, Dec. 1 as the City of New Haven kicks off the holiday season with the official city tree lighting ceremony. Featuring entertainment, photo opportunities with Santa and Mrs. Claus, there will also be many more “surprises” for the whole family to enjoy.
This event is family friendly, and pet friendly, featuring products from local vendors. Learn more about the City of New Haven’s Holiday Tree Lighting Ceremony.
Holiday Village on New Haven Green
While you’re visiting the New Haven Green for the tree lighting, be sure to check out the Holiday Village, located at 250 Temple Street.
