Filled festive décor and a shimmering Christmas tree, the courtyard becomes a glittering crystal garden - the perfect venue for holiday celebrations.

Families will take the chill off next to heaters as they listen to the award-winning Georgetown Visitation Madrigals perform holiday classics and a song from Disney’s Frozen. Children will enjoy decorating holiday cards and tasting holiday treats.  All families will be entered to win prizes including; overnight stays, dinners, brunch and tickets to Disney’s Frozen at the John F. Kennedy Center.

Master of Ceremonies, Fox-5’s Steve Chenevey and special guests, HM Ambassador to the United States, Dame Karen Pierce  and Mayor Muriel Bowser will help light the tree and introduce Santa as he makes a special appearance and  spends time listening to children’s Christmas wishes after the ceremony.

Fairmont’s tree lighting ceremony, which is free and open to the public, encourages all  guests to bring a gift for Horton’s Kids* -  such as Legos, basketballs, footballs, dolls, books, games or arts and crafts. The donations will help spread holiday cheer to over 500 children, ages 5 – 18.
