Downtown Lighting & Santa’s Arrival
November 22 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Join us at Main Plaza to kick off the holiday season with the lighting of beautiful, downtown New Braunfels and Santa’s arrival!
About
Come kick off the holiday season with us! Mayor Neal Linnartz will address the crowd at 6:30 p.m. where he will count down and flip the switch, turning on the dazzling display of lights downtown. After the lights are on, Santa Claus is scheduled to arrive on a New Braunfels Fire Department fire truck and make his way to the NBU parking lot where families will have a chance to have their photo taken with Santa. The New Braunfels Community Band and the Canyon High School Steel Drum Band will provide entertainment until 8:30 p.m.
Photos
Photos will take place at the NBU parking lot near Main Plaza. Photos are $10 each, with the proceeds benefitting the New Braunfels Parks Foundation. Please note that only credit card/debit card payments will be accepted, and no one will be allowed to enter the line after 8:30 p.m. (those already in line at 8:30 p.m. will still be served).
Food!
Enjoy sausage on a stick, snacks, and hot chocolate for sale by the New Braunfels Downtown Association! You’ll be making downtown an even better place with every bite.
