Announcing Bristol’s 45th Annual Community Christmas Tree Lighting This year we have made some fun changes to this community favorite event! Please note that the date is set for Monday, December 1st at 5.00 p.m. at Cumberland Square in Historic Downtown Bristol. Community members will gather for programming beginning around 6:00 pm, the 30ft Douglas Fir will be lit at approximately 7:00 pm followed by another wonderful performance from Santa and the Sleighboys!
The event will also feature 25+ holiday trees, each decorated by a local business, individual, or non-profit organization. All of the trees, along with the Douglas Fir community Christmas tree, will be lit simultaneously during the Community Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony. Additional trees will also be located at the Downtown Center (810 State St. Bristol, TN), The Sessions Hotel (833 State Street), and Anderson Park for a total of 60 trees in this year's Christmas Tree Villages! Each 7’-8’ anchored live tree will be accompanied by a sign noting the group name. Spectators will have the chance to vote on their favorite tree via QR code on the signs and a prize for People’s Choice will be presented later in the season!
