Murrieta Lights Its City Tree on December 5 at Town Square Park, With a Festival of Wreaths
The City of Murrieta, in Riverside County, California, holds its Tree Lighting and Festival of Wreaths on Saturday, December 5, at Town Square Park and Amphitheater, 11 Town Square. The free celebration runs from 5 to 7:30 p.m.
The centerpiece of the evening is the lighting of the city's Christmas tree at 6 p.m. Around it, the park offers live music and entertainment, dessert vendors and photo opportunities with Santa. The Festival of Wreaths adds a local twist: businesses and community groups decorate a display of wreaths that lines the celebration alongside the city tree.
Murrieta's holiday kickoff has evolved in recent years from a festival of trees into the wreath-themed format, keeping the focus on decorations made by the community itself rather than a single display.
The event is outdoors, next to Murrieta City Hall at the city's central downtown gathering space, and attendees are encouraged to arrive early for the 6 p.m. lighting moment.
