Gather family and friends for an evening of festive music at the Palmer Square Annual Tree Lighting event! From 5-6pm, enjoy performances by the Princeton High School Choir, dueling piano favorites The Flying Ivories, and The Sugarplums, winners of the CW’s Christmas Caroler Challenge. Keep an eye out for a possible surprise visit from Santa!
Stop by the Yankee Doodle Tap Room’s outdoor Hot Cocoa Corner for a warm treat during the festivities!
Make the most of this downtown Princeton holiday tradition by arriving early for holiday shopping and a bite to eat at one of Palmer Square’s restaurants before the festivities begin.

Holiday shopping and tree lighting festivities make this a busy time at Palmer Square, so please allow extra time to arrive and park.
