The City of Mission kicked off the holiday season with the Mayor’s Annual Tree Lighting. This two-day celebration— Holiday Lights and Delights— was held on Friday, Nov. 19, and Saturday, Nov. 20, and included choir performances, moon jumps, life-sized Christmas cards for selfies, live music, games, food and craft vendors, toy raffles, and plenty of familyfriendly entertainment. Thousands of lights illuminated Leo Peña Placita Park.

“The holiday season is so special because it is a time when our community comes together with friends and family to celebrate peace, love, and joy,” Mayor O’Caña said. “After having to host a virtual Mayor’s Tree Lighting in 2020, we were so excited to be back in person in 2021. The tree lighting was a magical night that included wonderful entertainment by our local school districts and a special visit from Santa Claus.”
