The event will begin with an ice show presented by AZ Ice, which will be followed by the Mesa City Band playing traditional Christmas music around the four-story tall Mesa Christmas tree. Afterwards, there will be the lighting of the Mesa Christmas tree and an opening program.
For the rest of the evening everyone will be invited to enjoy holiday treats at Jack Frost’s Food Truck Forest and art from local vendors. Children will be heading to the Alliance Pavilion Stage at Mesa Arts Center to visit Santa.
