## About

Plantation's Light Up City Hall is a Saturday-evening holiday celebration at Plantation City Hall for the whole family. Children can take selfies with Santa, try ice skating, play in snow and make crafts, while vocal groups perform and food trucks serve dinner; the city promises many photo opportunities through the evening. The night also brings the announcement of the winner of the city's There's Snow Place Like Plantation contest. It runs from 5 to 9 PM on the first Saturday of December. The city's page does not list a price for admission or for the skating and snow, so ask the Parks & Recreation Department at (954) 452-2510 if cost matters for your plans.
