Holiday Events Coming Up In Downtown Littleton
Don your gay apparel and get ready for the holidays with Littleton's Candlelight Walk and Tree Lighting and Holiday Elf Crawl.
LITTLETON, CO -- Littleton’s 34th annual Candlelight Walk and Tree Lighting is expected to be bigger and better than ever this year on Friday, Nov. 24. Santa will make his way down Main Street amid flaming hula hoop displays by the Colorado Fire Tribe and the holiday sounds of local choirs and brass bands. Littleton will close Main Street at 4 p.m., but there's plenty of parking at Arapahoe Community College, the Littleton Center and the Arapahoe County Building.
Holiday music will be provided by Littleton High School choir, Heritage High School Brass, Arapahoe Community College Choir and the Leawood Elementary Choir. You can pet a live reindeer and watch a holiday float adorned with a glittering ice princess and dancing elves. The event culminates with Santa illuminating more than one million lights downtown. Longtime Littleton resident and television news anchor Anne Trujillo will emcee the evening.
Entertainment begins at 5:30 p.m. Visit Santa’s reindeer at Bradford Auto Body, Inc. (2659 West Main Street) and drink delicious hot cider provided by Western Welcome Week at Bega Park, Town Hall Arts Center and Bradford Auto Body. Candles are available for 50 cents. Bradford Auto Body, Inc., will accept drop-off donations of non-perishable food for Integrated Family Community Services (IFCS) or toys for the Arapahoe Santa Claus shop. Then at 6:30 p.m., Santa will start making his way down Main Street!
