## About

Sunrise lights its seasonal display at Light Up the Holidays, a free evening at the Sunrise Amphitheater. Everyone can enjoy live music and performances on the amphitheater stage, food vendors, roaming Grinch interactions, holiday decorations and photo spots, the tree lighting ceremony at 7 PM and a nighttime drone show by Luna Lite at 9 PM. The Winter Wonderland area inside the event is for Sunrise residents only: with proof of residency, families receive wristbands for kids' activities and a snow slide, photos with Santa from 5 to 7 PM, hot chocolate and cookie decorating. Visitors from outside Sunrise can still attend the rest of the evening at no charge, which makes the tree lighting and drone show the main draw for them.
