HOMETOWN HOLIDAYS: West Seattle Junction festivities begin with Tree Lighting & Night Market on Saturday

img_0755-1

The wreaths went up today; the garlands, over the Thanksgiving weekend. The holiday season has officially arrived in the West Seattle Junction. This week’s biggest Hometown Holidays (co-sponsored by WSB) event: The Tree Lighting and Night Market, coming up Saturday (December 3rd) in and next to Junction Plaza Park (42nd SW/SW Alaska). The Night Market, to be set up on SW Alaska (closed to traffic), starts at 4 pm Saturday and continues until 8; the Tree Lighting, with “a full music/comedy lineup” promised, is scheduled for 4:30-5:30 pm. See the full Hometown Holidays lineup here.

    So I’m a bit confused because I went by tonight and looks like the tree is already lit!

      Could be, have seen that happen before (and also noticed for example the lights on at OLG tonight ahead of their lighting event Friday night) … Whether it is or isn’t, the big Junction event remains Saturday night.
