HAPPENING IN MORRISTOWN
Event Description:
For over 100 years, generations of residents and visitors have come to the heart of downtown Morristown to enjoy the magic of the Christmas season. It began in 1913 with a small group of festive volunteers lighting a single star atop one tree on the Morristown Green. Since that time, this tradition has spread holiday cheer to countless families with its addition of a Santa House, holiday music and crafts, a vintage-style oversized rocking horse, ice sculpture demonstrations, free rides around the Green on a miniature electric trail. All activities are free with the exception of a $15 fee for photos with Santa.
A full calendar of family friendly activities will be posted for Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays throughout the month of December. Look for a detailed activities and entertainment schedule on our website Event Page - posted on a rolling basis so please keep checking back!
We offer our sincere thanks to all our sponsors who support this time-honored Morristown tradition.
