It opens a weekend of borough holiday events at the same plaza: a community Menorah Lighting for Hanukkah on Saturday evening, and on Sunday afternoon the first of Santa's three visits to his Lansdale house alongside a TubaChristmas concert. The calendar entry is brief and does not list a program, a fee or whether Santa appears at the lighting itself, so check the borough's calendar again closer to the date. The two-hour evening window makes it an easy outing for families with young children who want to see the lights come on and still get home for bedtime. ## Similar picks in Philadelphia - [West Chester Tree Lighting and Hometown Christmas Parade](https://grassyknees.com/philadelphia/activities/west-chester-tree-lighting-and-hometown-christmas-parade--listing-1f358336791d560c93326ff0) — Fri, Dec 4 · 6:30 PM · Downtown West Chester · Free · checked Oct 20.
