It’s the most wonderful time of the year in Alpharetta as the community gathers to share in the holiday spirit at the Season of Celebration events. The festivities will be held on December 2, 9 & 16 from 5:00 to 9:00 PM in Downtown Alpharetta. The Annual Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony begins at 6:30 p.m. on Friday, December 2, and will illuminate the Town Green with thousands of twinkling lights.
Creating special memories for families for over 45 years, the celebration began in 1977 with about 100 people gathered around a six-foot live blue spruce tree. Today, the Christmas tree lighting ceremony, includes a 50’ tree that was generously donated to the City by Evans General Contractors in 2021. Alpharetta’s annual Season of Celebration events have grown to three Fridays in December when approximately 3,000 residents gather each week to celebrate the season with a variety of events.
“The Christmas Tree Lighting has brought the Alpharetta community together for years,” said Alpharetta Mayor Jim Gilvin. “It is a perfect time to enjoy the simple traditions of the holiday season. Community celebrations like this showcase the vibrancy of our city, strengthen connections between our residents, and create an opportunity for families to create memories together.”
