Oak Square Tree Lighting

December 6 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

  • « 2026 Historical Calendar Sale
  • Porter Belly’s Live Entertainment »

The Oak Square Tree lighting in Brighton is part of Boston’s Mayor’s Enchanted Trolley Tour, now in its 29th year, and it’s designed to spread holiday cheer across neighborhoods.

Here’s a quick snapshot of what to expect:

  • Hot cocoa and cookies at 6:00pm: Sponsored by Brighton Main Streets, a cozy way to kick off the evening.
  • Santa visit: A chance for kids (and adults!) to share their holiday wishes.
  • Tree lighting ceremony: The highlight moment when Oak Square shines bright.
  • Mayor Wu and the Trolley at 6:45pm: The Enchanted Trolley rolls in, continuing the tradition of bringing holiday spirit across Boston.
  • Community sponsorship: Bank of America supports the event, helping keep the tradition alive.

It’s the kind of gathering where neighbors come together, kids get excited, and the whole square feels transformed into a holiday wonderland.
