100.1 WJRZ’s Holiday Guide 2024

It’s only mid-November, but if you’re anything like me, you’re already starting to get into the holiday spirit. And even if you’re not, Thanksgiving is quickly approaching, so it can’t be put off too much longer. Soon it will be time to bake cookies and hang the stockings with care. But if you’re looking for festive events that’ll get you out of the house and spending time with your family sometime soon, look no further than local Christmas tree lightings. They’re wonderful events that signal the start of the holiday season.

Here in Ocean County, there are a bunch of towns that are having tree lighting this year, so you won’t have to go far. I’ve done the hard work of researching for you, so all you have to do is scroll down and find the one closest to you! Plus, there’s a couple on the list where you might just spot our, or our sister station WJRZ’s, promo team. If you decide to stop by any of the tree lighting on the list, take pictures and tag us on social media! We’d love to see you getting into the Christmas spirit!
