Crowds Line Up for Light Up Blue Ridge

The GREAT TREE is back! The 27 foot tall tree, towered above the crowds on Saturday for the traditional Light up Blue Ridge Festivities.

Downtown was filled with live entertainment throughout the day including specials such as Tuba Christmas.

A full day of fun began on Saturday as Santa and Mrs. Claus arrived in a horse drawn sleigh followed by a parade. The night and activities ended with the lighting of the tree.Watch the short clip below of the Great Tree lighting below.
