Annual Tree Lighting

East Passyunk Avenue’s annual Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony will be held at The Singing Fountain (East Passyunk Avenue and Tasker Street) on Wednesday, November 29 from 5 – 7pm. This beloved kickoff to the holidays brings together a crowd of locals and visitors of all ages to witness Santa Claus and a surprise guest lead the tree lighting ceremony while taking in the celebratory sounds from an exciting line-up of performers, including:
Coppin HOME band
Quaker City String Band
Jeremy Raves, the Kelly Street Chorus and the Union League Voices (leading a singlong!)
Members of the City Rhythm Orchestra
In addition to the excitement of the ceremony, the massive 14 ft. tree is adorned with vibrant 20,000 LED lights, aimed to colorfully visualize the joyous sounds of holiday music within the surrounding area.
