New Britain holiday tree lighting

From Mayor Tim O'Brien:

Please join me for New Britain's holiday tree lighting tomorrow (Tuesday, November 27th) from 4-7pm at Central Park in downtown New Britain! This is a great opportunity to come together as a community and enjoy a fun family night out in our city's downtown.

Here are some of the highlights:
  • Hot cocoa will be provided throughout the event.
  • At 4:30pm carriage rides that will begin.
  • At 5pm the New Britain High School Madrigals will sing.
  • At 6pm the Right Now Ministries Gospel Choir will welcome the arrival of Santa, and the tree lighting will follow.
  • Santa will have presents for the first 500 kids.
  • Throughout the event, Community Central, at 117 West Main Street will have arts and crafts for children.
  • After the event ends at 7pm, the New Britain Public Library will have arts and crafts.
  • All activities are free of charge.
  • The event will be on, rain or snow.
So, let's enjoy each other's company and our city's downtown and brighten the season together!
