Tree Lighting Ceremony

Expand to see the parent tip

Jupiter’s annual tree lighting moves to a new home this year on the Town Green at the Jupiter Municipal Campus, after construction on the campus.

Local school groups perform, everyone joins the countdown to the lighting, and food vendors include churros and slushies, plus a giveaway.

Parent tip: Leave the dog at home, since the town asks guests not to bring pets. Check the town’s parking and site map before you go.

Real snow and SantaFree

There’s Snow Place Like Jupiter

Expand to see the parent tip

Jupiter trucks in 32 tons of real snow to Abacoa Community Park for its hometown winter event, with a Winter Village and a meet and greet with Santa and Mrs. Claus.

Kids also get bounce houses, a live DJ and tabletop games and candy at booths run by local nonprofits.

Parent tip: Pack dry socks and a change of clothes. Real snow melts fast in Florida and little ones will be soaked.

When each Jupiter Christmas event for kids happens

Catch the tree lighting on Friday, December 4, then bring snow-ready clothes to Abacoa Community Park on December 12 for real snow and a visit with Santa.

A story for the drive home

A morning with Santa or an evening of holiday stories tends to end the same way: tired kids, a long drive and one more book before bed. Our picture book follows Rally the corgi on his first train ride to see his grand-paw-rents, and every page is painted by hand. If your family is spending December missing someone, it was written for that too. For the car, print our free corgi and train coloring pages.

A bedtime story after seeing SantaRally Takes the Train is a five-minute rhyming picture book about a corgi’s first ride on a California train, hand-painted in watercolor. $16.99 on Amazon, ages 0 to 8.
