A Cherished Marker of the Holiday Season is Here in San Ramon

It’s officially the holiday season here in the East Bay!

How do we know? The gigantic, live Christmas tree at City Center has arrived.

Each year, City Center brings in a massive, three-story-tall tree. It’s covered in lights and decked out with pretend presents and real ornaments.

There’s a tree lighting ceremony, and the tree serves as the centerpiece for visits with Santa and all kinds of other holiday activities.

It’s also the perfect place to take your kids for an impromptu holiday photoshoot. The gigantic pretend presents make a great backdrop.

There are hundreds of lovely metallic ornaments on the tree.

It’s officially the holidays!
