Downtown Tree Lighting
Catch the Spirit of the holidays in Downtown Grand Junction. It all starts with the Downtown Tree Lighting presented by Enstrom Candies! With a magical wave of his hand and a sprinkling of magic dust from the Wells Fargo rooftop, Santa lights not only the tree at 4th and Main, but also all the lights on Main Street simultaneously! Santa then sits down to visit with the kids before returning to the North Pole.
The 2021 Downtown Tree Lighting will take place on Saturday, November 20 from 5:00-7:00pm!
