Cathedral City Rings In the Season With Annual Tree Lighting & Snow Fest This Saturday

Cathedral City is officially kicking off the holidays this weekend. The city’s annual Tree Lighting and Snow Fest returns on Saturday, December 13, offering families an evening filled with festive fun from 4 to 8 p.m.

This year’s event features 12 tons of snow, an elf workshop with arts and crafts, train rides, an ugly sweater contest, and photos with Santa and Mrs. Claus.

The official tree lighting ceremony is set for 7 p.m. at Cathedral City Hall, while all snowy activities will take place just across the street at Town Square Park.

NBC Palm Springs’ Mary Strong will emcee the festivities throughout the evening. More details will be shared as the event gets closer.
