Santee’s Holiday Lighting Celebration will bring sledding, live music and photos with Santa to Santee Trolley Square on Friday, Nov. 20. The free event runs from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. at 9884 Mission Gorge Road, according to Patch’s Nov. 11 report.

The tree lighting is scheduled for 6:15 p.m. Activities include a performance by Upstream, face painting and holiday photo opportunities. The city’s event page places Santa’s photo area between Target and Miniso.

Parking near the celebration will be limited. The city encourages visitors to use the MTS Copper Line, which serves Santee Trolley Square, and says the event is planned to proceed rain or shine, with adjustments as needed.

Families will have another chance for free holiday photos during Selfies with Santa from 4 to 7 p.m. Dec. 2 at the same shopping center.
