WILMINGTON — There won’t be one, but rather two tree-lighting experiences to kick off the holiday season of cheer in Wilmington. Both are free and open to the public.
The city has two tree lightings planned. The first takes place the Friday after Thanksgiving in downtown Wilmington, on Nov. 29, 5 p.m. Participants should head to the foot of Market Street overlooking the Cape Fear River. There will be live entertainment, vendors, and Santa.
Then a week later on Thursday, Dec. 5, at Riverfront Park, 6 p.m., a second tree lighting takes place (10 Cowan St.) There will be performances by Roland-Grise Middle School chorus, a reading of “Twas The Night Before Christmas,” light refreshments, and Santa.
