## About

Gather with neighbors in southwest Milwaukee County for the City of Greenfield's annual Holiday Tree Lighting celebration at Konkel Park's amphitheater plaza. The outdoor festival begins with joyful holiday choral performances from local youth choirs, winter lawn games, and roaring fire pits where families can warm their hands. When dusk falls, Santa Claus makes an exciting arrival on a Greenfield Fire Department truck to help count down the lighting of the magnificent community evergreen tree. Afterward, children can visit Santa in the park pavilion to share their holiday wish lists and receive a candy cane. Complimentary hot cocoa and holiday treats keep everyone cozy as families celebrate the warmth of the holiday season together.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Konkel Park features fully paved, wide asphalt and concrete trails connecting parking, the amphitheater, and pavilion.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Heated modern park pavilion provides accessible family restrooms with baby changing tables and warm bench seating.
• Age Suitability: All ages; wonderful outing for babies, toddlers, school kids, and seniors.
• Sensory Tips: Fire truck arrival features flashing emergency lights and brief siren; pavilion provides a quieter environment for Santa visits.
