A small, sourced holiday planning guide that separates confirmed schedules from admission details still awaiting confirmation.

North Penn's holiday calendar is taking shape. These local listings have organizer-published dates, but not every organizer states admission, parking, or reservation details on the page we checked.
Use this guide to shortlist an outing, then open the official source before you leave. Free refreshments do not automatically mean an entire event or every activity is free.

Official schedule and ticket information
Lansdale Holiday Tree Lighting
When: Friday, December 4, 2026, starting at 6 p.m.
Where: Railroad Plaza, downtown Lansdale.
The borough's holiday page lists the December 4 start time. Its 2026 sponsorship packet identifies the tree-lighting date and Railroad Plaza location.
Cost: The checked borough information does not explicitly state an admission price. Admission cost was not stated on the organizer page checked. Parking and any purchases are separate considerations.
Planning note: This overlaps Towamencin's Friday celebration. Choose your main stop first rather than assuming you can attend every activity at both.

North Wales Christmas Tree Lighting
When: Sunday, December 6, 2026, from 4 to 5 p.m.
Where: North Wales; confirm the gathering location before setting out.
The borough's event page confirms the date and time. The readable event listing does not establish the gathering address, admission fee, parking arrangements, or reservation policy.
Before going: Check the organizer's current announcement for those details. The borough office address in the website footer is not evidence of the event venue.
Candlelight and Art Show at Morgan Log House
When: Friday, December 11, 2026, from 4 to 8 p.m.
Where: 850 Weikel Road, Towamencin Township, with a Lansdale mailing address.
The museum's event listing describes a seasonal candlelit visit with local plein-air artwork. It confirms the schedule but does not state an admission price or reservation policy in the readable event text.
Before going: Confirm those details with the venue. Do not apply ordinary tour prices or another calendar's free label to this special event without checking.
Keep the outing manageable
For a shorter scheduled stop, consider the one-hour North Wales listing once its location is confirmed. Towamencin offers a longer window, with optional paid rides. Morgan Log House provides an alternative on the following Friday.
Pack for the weather, check organizer updates on the day, and leave extra time for parking. No listing here guarantees availability or admission.
