Christmas Tree Lighting

Friday, November 24 kicks off the Annual Tree Lighting & Community Caroling Ceremony presented by Stop & Shop. This year, no matter where you are, you can enjoy the beauty of Nantucket as we prepare for this one-of-a-kind holiday season. Over 150 trees will magically come alive in a blaze of light. Main Street will be closed from 2 pm to 6 pm.

Over 150 balsam trees lining cobblestoned Main Street and surrounding byways magically illuminate following a dramatic countdown led by our illustrious Town Crier. A chorus of traditional carols ensues, led by Nantucket High School’s popular a cappella group, the Accidentals & Naturals.
Again this year, there will be a live-streaming of the ceremony on Facebook, and Instagram!

The countdown begins at 4:30 pm.
