Together with the Town of Wilton, Wilton Fire Department, Wilton Volunteers Ambulance Corps., Wilton Kiwanis Club and several retailers and businesses in the Town Center, all are invited to join the festivities beginning at 5:00 pm.

Make your way to the Town Green to be enchanted by the strolling carolers and dance performance from Wilton’s Conservatory of Dance. Families can enjoy crafts and treats provided by our local non-profit organizations and at 5:30 pm we will officially kick off the Christmas season with our tree lighting ceremony.
In addition to the festivities at the Town Green and Schenck’s Island, the Wilton Library staff will welcome visitors from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. outside their front entrance. They will be handing out special gift bags with sweet treats, while supplies last. They invite all visitors to shop for
gifts and stocking stuffers at their wonderful Holiday Book Sale in the gallery. All proceeds benefit the library. For the highlight of the evening, gather all the young ones as we keep the tradition going with Santa Claus arriving at the Town Green ushered by the Wilton Fire Department’s Ladder Truck 5. Children of all ages will be able to visit Santa at the gazebo where they can share their holiday wishes and receive a special treat from Santa starting at 5:45 pm.
