The center’s Holiday Weekend celebration will begin on Dec. 9, between 2 and 5 p.m., and will require pre-registration, accessible here, to enter the express line for an experience that features live jazz music and dance performances to highlight their magical tree lighting ceremony and a complimentary photo op with Santa Claus.
