Light Up Winter Garden gave area residents the perfect official kickoff to the holiday season. The 31st annual event filled up Plant Street with everyone dressed for the festivities.
While Santa hats and Christmas lights adorned the streets, there was also caroling and food available. As they caroled, locals also lighted candles that illuminated the sidewalks.


Winter Garden Mayor John Rees got to turn the lights on for the city’s Christmas tree. There was also live entertainment, vendors, and children’s activities for everyone to enjoy.
Duke Energy, the West Orange Ministerial Association and the City of Winter Garden sponsored the festivities.
