The Annual Tree Lighting Ceremony will take place from 6- 8 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 7, 2024 at the downtown Plaza de Las Cruces.
This event is a wonderful opportunity to bring our community together in the spirit of the season. The evening will feature live performances by Organ Mountain High School Jazz Band and NMSU’s official cover band, Proud Pete.
At 7 PM, we will have the honor of Mayor Eric Enriquez lighting the tree to kick off the official start of the holiday season.
