Ring in the season with the 98th Annual Mayor's Holiday Celebration and Tree Lighting Presented by Reliant, an NRG Company on Fri., Dec. 1, 2017 in the heart of downtown Houston. The spectacular event is a holiday tradition of music, Santa, fireworks and family fun. A towering Holiday Tree, glowing with energy efficient LED lights, shimmering ornaments and a stunning star topper will light up the streets of downtown Houston this holiday season. The event takes place in Hermann Square at City Hall from 6-8 p.m. and is free and open to the public.

Houston-based singer, songwriter and producer Cheryl Fortune will be the featured artist of the evening. Fortune is known for her contemporary gospel tracks that earned her a Grammy Nomination in 2012 for Best Gospel Song and Best Gospel Album. The holiday variety show will include fellow Houstonian Kechi Okwuchi, a finalist from this year’s America’s Got Talent.

The public is invited to bring a new, unwrapped toy to the Reliant booth at the Mayor’s Holiday Celebration to help make the holidays brighter for a child this season. Everyone who brings a toy will receive a light-up Santa hat from Reliant. The annual toy drive benefits the Salvation Army Greater Houston Area Command.

Parking is available for a fee at the Theater District Tranquillity Garage.
