The celebration kicks off at 2:30pm on the Green with a really cool ice-sculpting show by Ice Sculpture Philly.

Gather around to watch a block of ice be transformed into a baby grand piano. Say what? That's going to be so cool.

When it starts to get dark, the ice creations will set the scene for an exciting performance by The Flying Ivories later in the evening.

If you've ever been to this memorable event, you know that's not it.

The tree lighting ceremony officially starts at 5pm, and this year, you'll enjoy a concert from the BSTREETBAND, straight from the Jersey Shore.

C'mon, who doesn't love a little Bruce Springsteen holiday music?

There will also be some special guests.

The Princeton High School Choir will be there to add to the festivities.

I'm certainly hoping Santa Claus will help do the honors and light up the iconic, massive spruce tree with its over 30,000 twinkling lights once again this year.

Make sure your phone's charged so you can take lots of pictures.

It’s the perfect way to kick off the season with friends, family, and the community.

Happy holidays.

These are the long-gone NJ mall stores we miss the most

With so many trends of the 1990's back in style, it's a great time to look back at a strong foundation of 80's and 90's culture — New Jersey mall shopping. Some stores were a highlight, every trip.
