Maitland’s Season of Lights celebration will take place at Lake Lily Park on Saturday, December 1st at 5:00 PM. The annual holiday celebration presented by Maitland Leisure Services kicks off the holiday festivities for the community with music, fun and holiday treats on the shores of Lake Lily located at the corner of US Hwy 17-92 and Maitland Avenue.
Each year this Maitland tradition provides a performance opportunity for many of the community’s young performers from the Maitland Middle School and the Colby Dance Studio. The Lake Lily overlook stage will come to life at 5:00 PM when the musical program is presented featuring performances by the Maitland Middle School Wind Ensemble, Maitland Middle School Chamber Singers, Maitland Middle School Orchestra and dancers from the Maitland Colby Dance Studio, to the delight of one and all.
The activities are a prelude to the arrival of a special guest from the North Pole who will be joined by City officials as they throw the switch to light up Lake Lily Park and officially start the holiday season in the City of Maitland.
The evening promises to provide surprises and smiles for one and all with an opportunity for youngsters to meet the jolly visitor from the north. Food trucks will offer refreshments for purchase and the evening will be highlighted by a fireworks finale at 7:00 PM. Make plans today to attend!
