## About

Holiday in Paradise, West Palm Beach's holiday season on the downtown waterfront, returns from Nov 27 to Dec 31, 2026 with the theme 'The Art of Holidays', a celebration of creativity built around color, movement, music and imagination. The city's famous holiday tree made of sand, Sandi, is at the heart of it. The city says opening-night festivities and the season's schedule are still being finalized, so nightly hours and show times are not posted yet; the official lighting of Sandi is set for Thursday, Dec 3. The season is presented by Florida Power & Light and centers on the waterfront at the foot of Clematis Street.
