CHRISTMAS ON THE LAHAVE
Bridgewater’s most magical time of year is just around the corner.

Christmas Tree Lighting
November 27th, 6:30pm Pijinuiskaq Park Lookout
Kicking off the season on Friday, November 27th at the Pijinuiskaq Look-Off, the lighting of our community Christmas Tree, will be sure to fill your cup with the festive spirit (and not just due to Gow’s generously sponsored Hot Chocolate). Join our elves for caroling, special guests, and of course the unveiling of the town’s Christmas Tree. This free family-friendly event is the perfect way to wrap up the week and step into the holiday season.
Michelin Bridgewater Parade of Lights
The parade features illuminated floats, fire trucks, marching bands, festive characters, and even a pony or two. With so many twinkling lights, you might just think you’re at the North Pole! Once the last float goes by, don’t forget to keep an eye out for a very special guest in red.
