Join the City of Des Plaines for live entertainment, a special appearance by Santa, and admire the trees decorated by local community groups. Don’t forget to drop off your letter to the North Pole at our mailbox!
This year’s theme is “Holiday Magic," and celebrates the wonder and joy of Des Plaines' community. The mitten tree will be available for donations of new hats, gloves, mittens and scarves of all sizes. Nonperishable food donations for the Des Plaines Self Help Closet and Pantry are welcome. Please visit their website for a list of current most needed items.
Free parking is available in the Metropolitan Square Parking Garage (entrances off of Lee St. and Miner St.) and the Civic Center Garage (behind City Hall).
