On Tuesday, November 21, the volunteer choir group Choir!Choir!Choir! will be on site to lead guests in some familiar Christmas tunes as the tree first lights up.

The massive Christmas tree will act as a focal point heading into the holiday season, and the mall is expecting hundreds of spectators gathered for the official lighting.

The event begin at 6 pm at the mall’s Centre Court, and all are welcome to attend.
