Foxborough Christmas Tree to Light Up This Weekend

With Thanksgiving over, the holiday season is officially here and that means lighting up the downtown area.

The Foxboro Jaycees will be at the center of town on Saturday, Nov. 29 to decorate the common for the holidays from 9:30 a.m. to noon.

Later that day, a new tradition starts with the tree lighting ceremony starting at 5:00 p.m. Children are encouraged to create an ornament to hang on the tree on at the Boyden Library. Kids can stop by the library between 4:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.

After the tree lighting ceremony, Santa and Mrs. Claus are expected to make an appearance.

The night before the ceremony, residents are invited to stop by the Orpheum Theater for a showing of It’s a Wonderful Life at 7:00 p.m. Tickets are $8 and children 10 and under are free.
