Candy Cane Lane & Village

Northern Lights Festival, Candy Cane Lane & Village
Event Description: 

The beloved holiday tradition once known as Candy Cane Lane & Village has blossomed into the Northern Lights Holiday Community Giving Tree Event, offering a richer experience for the entire community. This year’s celebration expands its focus to embrace the spirit of giving and provide engaging activities for teens and adults, alongside the classic fun for kids.

The event's centerpiece is the new “Giving Tree Forest.” Local nonprofits and service clubs will showcase beautifully decorated trees, each highlighting opportunities to contribute time, treasure, or talent. This offers a meaningful way for attendees to connect with and support vital community organizations.

While younger children will delight in Santa and Mrs. Claus’ arrival on a fire engine, craft stations, Santa Letter writing stations, and a scavenger hunt, there’s plenty for others to enjoy. Explore interactive nonprofit tables, enjoy youth and community musical performances, and plenty of photo opportunities. The day concludes with an outdoor tree lighting ceremony where the winners of the Giving Tree contest will be announced.

Join your neighbors for this festive gathering that celebrates community, supports local causes like Toys for Tots, and offers holiday fun for the whole family. It's a perfect way to kick off the season with joy and purpose.
