For over 39 years Christmas in the Park has been held in Downtown San Jose. The opening day of 2019 was November 29th, and will close January 5th, 2020. Christmas in the Park is open from 9 am-12am every day until then. Each year, there’s over 500 trees decorated by local schools, organizations and others. All for display in Plaza de César Chávez Park. Lincolns’ Cheer squad, LPC, Convertibles, and Xóchil were invited to have their very own tree. You can go visit their trees at #559, #113, #114. Each are decorated with their own themes and look very festive and unique.
