Hammonton Tree Lighting

TREE LIGHTING RETURNS TO DOWNTOWN HAMMONTON THIS DECEMBER
HAMMONTON, NJ – One of Hammonton’s most cherished traditions returns as the Annual Downtown Hammonton Tree Lighting takes place on Saturday, December 6th from 6:00–9:00 PM at the intersection of Bellevue Avenue and Central Avenue. Presented by our Gold Sponsors: Philip Carr of Crowley and Carr Real Estate and Bobby Capoferri, this festive evening will once again bring families, friends, and neighbors together to celebrate the magic of the holiday season.
This year’s celebration will feature The Hammonton Gazette Elf Village, offering families a charming, interactive holiday experience. Guests can enjoy holiday music, live performances, sing-a-longs, games, and activities throughout the night. At 7:00 PM, Santa Claus will arrive to officially light the Town Tree, marking the start of the holiday season in Downtown Hammonton. After the lighting, Santa will greet families inside The Bellevue (the former Wells Fargo building).
Visitors can also take in the glow of the beautiful lanterns lit for the holidays by Allies in Caring, adding to the warm and welcoming atmosphere downtown. Free trolley rides will begin after the ceremony, offering guests a festive tour of beautifully lit homes and holiday displays around the community.
“Our Tree Lighting is one of the most beloved events of the year,” says Ty Wilson, Executive Director of MainStreet Hammonton. “I’m honored to be part of such a meaningful tradition here in Hammonton, and grateful to have an incredible team working alongside me to bring our community the very best event possible.
