Campbell’s Carol of Lights kicks off holidays Dec. 7

Carol of Lights

The annual Carol of Lights, a free family-oriented holiday event, is set for Dec. 7 at 4 p.m. in downtown Campbell.The event features Santa visits, a petting zoo, donkey rides, bounce houses, craft tables, face painting, carolers and other music, free snacks and community performances. Sometimes there’s even snow.

Organizers are looking to turn this year’s Carol of Lights into an ugly sweater street party, so attendees are encouraged to wear the most hilarious, hideous and beautifully ugly holiday sweaters they own.

The Carol of Lights is produced by the Downtown Campbell Business Association and volunteers. For more information or to donate to the effort, visit https://www.downtowncampbell.com/dcba/donate.
