Saturday, December 3rd will be the West Seattle Junction’s annual Tree Lighting and Holiday Night Market. This year, the event becomes a festival with a stage show, later hours, a beer and mulled wine garden, and an artistic light display element called G.L.O.W.S. (Glorious Lights of West Seattle).

Alaska Street will be closed from 42nd to 44th. California Ave will be closed from Oregon to Edmunds.

Everyone coming to the festival is encouraged to wear LED lights – anything from a single strand to a full-on costume. A group of roving artists will award prizes to the top individual costume ($250 Junction gift card), pet costume ($100 Junction gift card), and group costume ($500 Junction gift card).
