Rancho Palos Verdes Tree Lighting Set for Dec. 4, Winter Festival Follows Dec. 5 With Real Snow and Night Hikes
The City of Rancho Palos Verdes, in Los Angeles County, California, announced that its annual Tree Lighting Ceremony will be held on Friday, Dec. 4, followed by a Winter Festival on Saturday, Dec. 5, both at the Ken Dyda Civic Center, 30940 Hawthorne Blvd, with real snow for snow play and sledding on both days and complimentary activities provided by the city and its sponsors.
On tree lighting night, a winter storm will bring the first snowfall of the season over the Civic Center. Families are invited to enjoy an evening of snow play and sledding, and the city reminded visitors not to forget gloves for the real snow. Kids and adults alike can warm up with freshly brewed cocoa and coffee while enjoying festive holiday music and crafts, and the city's large decorated tree and Menorah will be lit to celebrate the holiday season. A Holiday Pop-Up shop will also be on site.
At the Winter Festival the next day, the Recreation and Parks Department will host guided night hikes in the Alta Vicente Reserve, where hikers can listen for hooting owls and chirping insects under a starlit sky. Afterwards, hikers will gather around bonfire pits to warm up with coffee, cocoa and s'mores while listening to carolers. Children can also play in real snow and sled down a slide made of ice and snow.
