City of Lights is more than a parade - it's a day of festive fun, community, and delicious treats.
We're loving these photos from the activities leading up to the evening- including roasting marshmallows, vendor markets, games, photos with Santa & Lowla, the Hot Chocolate Competition, and the Holly Jolly Trolley!
