Palm Beach County is about to light up, as area venues will be hosting holiday tree lightings for all to enjoy. These holiday tree lightings are free to attend and are perfect for the entire family — and often include a variety of other holiday activities. From ice skating and mini golf to music and snowfalls, there's always something to enjoy. These lightings take place between November 11 and December 2 — and remain on the trees throughout the holiday season.
