About this Event
Kick off the holiday season with a festive evening at Belmar’s Holiday Tree Lighting Celebration.
Join us in the Plaza for a heartwarming night filled with seasonal cheer, family-friendly activities, and holiday traditions. The evening centers around the ceremonial lighting of the Belmar holiday tree at 6:00 PM, surrounded by twinkling lights, winter fun, and plenty of reasons to linger.
Families can enjoy ice skating, creative holiday craft stations, and opportunities to write letters to Santa and heartfelt notes to members of the military who may be away from home during the holidays. A photo opportunity with Santa will be available, along with charming horse-and-wagon rides to complete the storybook feel of the evening. Food and drink specials will be offered at participating Belmar restaurants throughout the event.
