## About

Downtown Container Park, an innovative open-air family shopping and dining destination constructed from shipping containers, marks the holiday season with its annual Family Holiday Tree Lighting. Families gather in the central courtyard beneath the open sky as the 30-foot decorated tree is illuminated to festive holiday music. The event features free photos with Santa inside his container workshop, face painting, holiday carols by youth choruses, hot cider and hot chocolate stations, and an outdoor screening of a holiday family classic on the big lawn screen. Kids can also explore the 3-story interactive treehouse with its 33-foot enclosed slide.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Ground-level courtyard and shopping arcades are completely paved and stroller accessible; ramp access to elevated container shops.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Family restrooms with diaper changing stations are located near the park entrance courtyard.
• Age Suitability: Ideal for families with toddlers and elementary-age kids (family-friendly until 9:00 PM daily).
• Sensory Tips: Vibrant open-air atmosphere; open lawn seating provides space for wiggly toddlers to move freely.
