Downtown Martindale Christmas Tree lighting and parade Saturday

By Amanda Traywick          

   Santa Claus is coming to Martindale. Join us on December 5, 2025, for the 18th Annual Downtown Christmas Tree Lighting.

   Santa will be stopping by all the Martindale neighborhoods starting at 5 pm, by 6 pm Santa will arrive in downtown Martindale.  

     Join us at 413 Main Street, Martindale, TX for pictures with Santa, shopping with some local vendors, and our silent auction! In the Library we will be watching movies and working on crafts. 

   Kids will also have the opportunity to write letters to Santa Claus. There will be forms for the kids to fill out! They will be in the candy bags thrown out during the parade or you can pick them up from the library. 

   Thanks to a generous donation by the Save the Children Foundation, we are happy to announce that Santa will be handing out gifts for kids ages 0 – 12.

   Come sip some hot coco, browse our auction items, and get in the holiday spirit with us in Martindale. 

   This event is partially funded by St. David’s Foundation and gifts donated by the Save the Children Foundation.
