Holiday season is here and it is almost time for the upcoming Light it up Kailua holiday tree lighting ceremony in Kailua. The giant tree at Castle Medical Center, at Kalanianaole Hwy and Kailua Road, will be strung with thousands of lights for the event. Last year’s event featured a trolley ride, a live nativity scene, and many other festivities.
This year, the festivities will start at 5:00pm on Wednesday, December 5, 2012, with celebrity M.C.s, Gregg Hammer (Island 98.5) and Dawn O’Brien (The FISH FM 95.5). There will be performances by the Marine Forces Pacific Band (6:15 p.m.) Vaihi (7:30 p.m.) and a special perfomrance by Barrett and Tara Awai.
Event Parking will be available at the Kailua Town Center, Christ’s Church Uniting Disciples and Presyterians (1300 Kailua Road) and Faith Baptist Church (1230 Kailua Road). A shuttle to Castle Medical Center from Kailua Town Center and Pier One will run regularly, beginning at 5:00 pm. No parking on Manu Aloha street adjacent the the Castle E.R.
Come early, listen to Christmas music and enjoy a picnic in the lawn. Hot nacho bar available for purchase in the Bistro tent. See the lighting of the tree, visit with Santa and Mrs. Claus, enter a drawing for great prizes, participate in keiki activities and partake in holiday munchies.
