Searching for a New Jersey Christmas tree lighting near you? Do you want to see a local Festival of Trees?
Let Jersey Family Fun help! We do the hard work so you don’t have to. We know many kids love the joy of seeing a Christmas tree light up for the first time or seeing how imagination and ornaments can make a tree come to life. Even moms and dads get excited to see all ways a tree can be decorated.
We get it and over the past few years we’ve seen more and more New Jersey towns add a Christmas tree lighting or Festival of Trees to their local Christmas events. In 2019, we decided to make it easier than ever to help our readers find Christmas tree lightings and other Christmas trees in their New Jersey communities, by listing them all in one place.
Below you’ll find our listing of New Jersey Christmas trees to see organized by region and tree lighting, Festival of Trees, or other Christmas tree display. For each one we’ll share the details. We encourage you to click the link for each listing to find out more details such as the address, if registration is required for participants, and if there’s an alternate date in the event of rain.

We will be updating this list OFTEN for Christmas 2023. Click event titles or the words ‘event listing’ for more details.
If your church, organization, or community is hosting a Christmas tree lighting or Festival of trees (with admission that is $5 or less per person) that you would like added to this list, please submit it using our Free Event Submission Form.
We’re currently updating this for Christmas 2023. Save this and check back often for updates.
