The holiday season is just around the corner, and Gilbert is ready to light up the night. Mark your calendars for the annual Water Tower Holiday Lighting event on Friday, December 1st. This beloved community tradition is the perfect way to welcome the most wonderful time of the year with family and friends.

Get ready to gather at the newly transformed Water Tower Plaza for an evening of festive cheer. Watch as the iconic water tower is illuminated with dazzling holiday lights, officially kicking off the holiday season in Gilbert. This is more than just a lighting ceremony; it’s a celebration that brings the community together for a night of joy and entertainment.

What to Expect at the Event

The Water Tower Holiday Lighting is designed for everyone to enjoy. Bring the kids, grab your loved ones, and immerse yourselves in a festive atmosphere filled with twinkling lights, cheerful music, and the collective spirit of the community. It’s an ideal outing to create lasting holiday memories.

The event takes place in the heart of Gilbert’s Heritage District, offering a picturesque backdrop for an evening of fun. The renovated Water Tower Plaza provides a beautiful, modern space for the community to gather and celebrate.

Parking and Planning Your Visit

With a popular event like this, a little planning goes a long way. The Heritage District has several free parking options, including the Hearne Way Garage and the Vaughn Avenue Garage. Arriving a bit early is always a good idea to secure a convenient spot and give you time to explore the area before the festivities begin.

Consider making a full evening of it. The Heritage District is home to some of Gilbert’s best restaurants and shops. Grab a bite to eat before the lighting, or enjoy a post-event dessert at one of the local spots to complete your holiday outing.

Why let the holiday cheer end with the water tower lighting? Make the evening even more memorable by exploring what local Gilbert businesses have to offer. After enjoying the community event, consider stopping by a local dealership to check out the latest models and holiday offers. It’s a great, low-pressure way to see what’s new and maybe even find the perfect vehicle to carry your family through the holiday season and beyond.
