Kicking off the merriment was Dublin’s 27th annual Holiday Tree Lighting that took place on Dec. 2 at the Dublin Civic Center with entertainment and caroling. The Dublin Unified Elementary School Choir performed.
Also on Dec. 2, San Ramon’s Bishop Ranch hosted its ninth annual tree-lighting ceremony, which included sleigh rides, live music and the lighting of the 65-foot tall Christmas tree.
Livermore Holiday Sights and Sounds Parade and Tree Lighting was held on Dec. 4. For the first time this year, Tri-Valley TV personality, Anna Kagarakis served as one of the hosts providing commentary along with Livermore City Councilman Jeff Williams. A Livermore tradition, the celebration consisted of a parade with floats, marching bands, music and the lighting of a tall spruce tree and a Menorah.
Also taking place on Dec. 4 was the annual Pleasanton Hometown Holiday Celebration. This event included a parade down Main Street with floats, marching bands and community groups. The tree lighting ceremony followed the parade at the Museum on Main.
