Edmonds Christmas FAQ
The Edmonds Holiday Market and the Tree Lighting Ceremony at Centennial Plaza are two of the most popular annual events.
Edmonds is known for its decorated boat display at the marina and the festive tree lighting at Centennial Plaza, both beloved local traditions.
Downtown Edmonds and the marina area are especially festive, but many residential neighborhoods also feature beautiful holiday lights.
The Edmonds Holiday Market in downtown is the main hub, but local makers also set up at community centers and seasonal pop-up events.
Viewing the marina boat lights, attending the tree lighting, and exploring neighborhood displays are all free and festive options.
Families enjoy the Holiday Market, the tree lighting ceremony, and strolling the docks to see decorated boats, all of which are kid-friendly.
