Santa Claus touches down at the Third Street Promenade to flip the switch on Santa Monica’s official Christmas tree and dust the block with snow. Between snapshots with the big guy, you can sip complimentary hot cocoa, browse the holiday market, and catch carolers, ballet dancers, crafts, and games.
