The Holiday Tree in Rittenhouse Square in Philadelphia will be lit for the season on Monday, December 9, 2024!
Join CBS News Philadelphia, IBEW Local 98, the Friends of Rittenhouse Square and the Greater Philadelphia Choral Society for the event starting at 5:30 p.m.
There will be giveaways and two restaurants along the square will provide refreshments: enjoy hot chocolate from Parc and snacks from Scarpetta.
Our NEXT Weather Meteorologist Kate Bilo will be there to help flip the switch.
There may still be some rain on Monday, but it seems to decrease in the evening. When the time comes, we expect the weather to be cloudy with temperatures in the mid to upper 40s.
Rittenhouse Square is located in Center City, between 18th and 20th streets south of Walnut Street.
