Light Up Main - Town of Garner Annual Tree Lighting

Light Up Main is the official annual holiday tree lighting celebration held on Main Street in Downtown Garner. This community event marks the start of the holiday season by bringing residents together for an evening of festive tradition and local entertainment.

Attendees can participate in a variety of seasonal activities throughout the evening. The event features personal experiences with Santa Claus, so guests are encouraged to bring cameras for photos. Live stage performances will showcase local choirs, dancers, and musicians throughout the downtown area. The highlight of the evening occurs at 7:00 when Mayor Buddy Gupton and Santa officially illuminate the town tree. A special read-a-loud session with Santa is scheduled just prior to the lighting at 6:55.

This celebration is designed for community members of all ages who enjoy holiday festivities and supporting local talent. The atmosphere is centered on town pride and family oriented fun. Whether you are looking to shop for unique gifts or simply enjoy the seasonal sounds, this event offers a perfect way to engage with your neighbors.
