Spirit of Christmas Tree Lighting

Expand to see the parent tip

Millbrook kicks off its holiday season with the Spirit of Christmas Tree Lighting at Village Green Park, with storytelling, caroling and a sing-along to classic holiday songs.

Kids can take photos with Santa and Mrs. Claus, load up at a hot chocolate bar with all the fixings, and the city promises a 100% chance of snow during the evening.

Parent tip: Pack mittens for the snow machine and grab cocoa early, before the bar gets busy around the lighting.

Festival and paradeFree

Spirit of Christmas Festival and Parade

Expand to see the parent tip

The City of Millbrook fills Village Green Park with its Spirit of Christmas Festival on the second Saturday of December, running from 8 am to 2 pm.

The Spirit of Christmas Parade steps off at noon, so families can browse the vendors in the morning and claim a spot to watch the floats at midday.

Parent tip: Get to Village Green Park by mid-morning so you can see the festival and still have time to find a parade spot before noon.

When each Millbrook Christmas event for kids happens

Start with Santa and the snow at the December 3 tree lighting, then come back to Village Green Park on December 12 for the festival and the noon parade.

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.
