Tree Lighting

• Dates: December 17, 2023
• Location: Lyndon B. Johnson State Park
• Time: Dec. 17

Enjoy this special tradition started 54 years ago by President and Mrs. Johnson. Enjoy carolers, a live Nativity scene, Santa Claus, refreshments, and, of course, the spectacular tree lighting. Find refreshments and activities near the park headquarters, then journey back in time by visiting the Sauer-Beckmann Farm at dusk. The ambiance created by the lantern-lit path, the real Christmas tree in the parlor, and the live music transports you back to what an authentic Texas-German Christmas was like at the turn of the century. There are tasty homemade treats, too.
