Communities are marking the season with public lighting events and family celebrations. Providence’s final full WaterFire lighting of 2026 honored veterans and connected visitors with a veterans resource fair, while also featuring a model of a planned Vietnam Veterans Memorial and a tribute to missing and fallen service members. Other holiday events include a San Diego Christmas tree lighting with Santa, games and crafts; Hudson Yards’ ceremony with live music and performances; and the Ritz-Carlton San Francisco’s tree lighting with carolers, trumpeters and Santa. In Santa Clarita Valley, Winter Magic is returning with its lighted boat parade, a family tradition spanning 31 years.
