It may only be November,

but Roseville is already getting into the holiday spirit with fun events for the whole family! Bring the entire clan out December 2-7 for a week of family fun at the newly expanded Downtown Holiday Celebration.

Start the week off on Monday at the Town Square’s Storytime with Santa, followed by a live stage performance on Tuesday. Both events start at 6:30 p.m. and are free. On Wednesday, come visit the first official Christmas Tree Grove. Families will enjoy food, making Christmas crafts, viewing the gingerbread house displays, listening to music, visiting with Santa and more. The trees will be displayed for the entire month of December.

The free holiday fun continues on Thursday with the annual Christmas Tree Lighting. See the mayor and friends light the City’s new official Christmas tree in Town Square. Experience an old-fashioned celebration and holiday cheer by decorating cookies, visiting with Santa and enjoying music, food and more. The weather forecast is even calling for a little snow.

On Friday night, bring your blankets and chairs to the Town Square for the holiday movie Elf, with a side of popcorn and hot chocolate. Finish the week off with a tasty pancake breakfast and some reindeer games at Breakfast with Santa on Saturday morning. Pre-registration required; fees are $10 for ages 2 and up and $5 for those under 2 years. Don’t forget your camera!
