For many Vancouverites, the lighting of the Christmas tree outside the Vancouver Art Gallery is what marks the beginning of the Christmas season. At 5:30pm this evening, the 50 foot tree will be lit up the Rockefeller way, with performances by the Vancouver Children’s Choir, Christmas soloists and more. Amacon is sponsoring this event for the fourth year, and aim to raise over $100,000 for various charities throughout the Lower Mainland. This is truly a feel-good event.
