2023 Tree Lighting Recap
The 2023 event kicked off with an action-packed afternoon, starting with an outdoor Boston Bruins hockey game featuring Beacon, the mascot for the Maine Mariners! Following the game, families enjoyed an outdoor screening of Disney’s Frozen, with appearances by beloved princess characters. Attendees also snapped photos with the LLBean Bootmobile, savored free samples from Presenting Sponsor Hood Eggnog, admired ice carvings, and delighted in live music and dancing performances. It was a perfect day out for the whole family!
