Description
## 2026 City of Palm Coast's Annual Tree Lighting Ceremony.
### Palm Coast Tree Lighting Ceremony and Rotary Fantasy Light Festival
Kick off the holiday season at Central Park in Town Center for the Tree Lighting Ceremony on November 28 at 6:00 PM. Hosted alongside the Palm Coast City Council and the Rotary Club of Flagler County, this special event marks the official opening of the 21st Annual Fantasy Light Festival. Santa Claus will make his grand entrance arriving on a Palm Coast Fire Engine to start an evening filled with festive cheer, holiday light displays, and family entertainment. Guests can explore Santa Village, visit the Letters to Santa station, enjoy kids crafts, get photos with Santa on site, and grab a bite from local food trucks.
**Event Details and Location** The festivities begin at 6:00 PM on November 28, 2026 at Central Park in Town Center, located at 975 Central Avenue in Palm Coast, Florida. Admission is free and open to the public.
**For Florida Residents and Locals** This event is a beloved tradition for Flagler County families, neighbors, and local community groups. It is the perfect opportunity to gather right in our hometown, see Santa arrive on a fire engine, and enjoy the holiday lights together. Skip the long drives and bring the family out for an unforgettable night in the heart of Palm Coast.

It is a wonderful way for traveling families to experience local Florida holiday traditions, walk under dazzling light displays, and enjoy a festive night out under the stars.
