The annual outdoor celebration pairs a 5:30 p.m. tree lighting with Santa, Haven’s Petting Farm and food by the bonfires.
All times are local to the venue · America/Chicago
The Village of Brookfield Tree Lighting returns on Thursday, December 3, 2026, for a two-hour holiday gathering at 2927 N. Brookfield Rd. The tree-lighting countdown comes half an hour into the evening, at 5:30 p.m.
Horse-and-carriage rides are scheduled throughout the event, so visitors have time to consider a ride before or after the countdown. Santa and Haven’s Petting Farm are also on the program, though separate times for those activities have not been listed.
The food choices range from s’mores at the bonfires to hot cocoa, cider and cookies; a Chick-fil-A food truck is listed as well. Live performances are planned, but the event announcement does not name the performers or give their times.
