On Friday, November 22nd from 6:00 p.m.- 8:00 p.m., Old Saint Nick returns to Destin Commons to light the Christmas Tree. Starting at 6:00 p.m., children and families are invited to enjoy free face painting, photos with Rudolph and Frosty, and a holiday photo booth. Wander throughout Destin Commons and enjoy the most festive display of decorations while listening to your favorite holiday tunes filling the night air. 
 

The parade kicks off at 7:00 p.m. as Santa Claus arrives on Main Street to light a spectacular 50 foot Christmas tree. Immediately following the tree lighting, guests delight in a fireworks display that is sure to bring an extra twinkle to Old Saint Nick's eye. From there, Santa makes his way to Bass Pro Shops to begin hearing Christmas wishes.
