Overview Surrey Tree Lighting Festival is a winter holiday event at Surrey Civic Plaza, produced by the City of Surrey with MRG Live. On site The event runs annually in late November, from 12:00 pm to 8:00 pm, with a holiday market, light displays, a Ferris wheel, photos with Santa and the lighting of Surrey's 60-foot Christmas tree. Audience MRG Live's festival portfolio draws four recurring crowds: 19-to-39 tastemakers who discover acts early, a younger 14-to-24 social-first audience, frequent event-goers who attend several ticketed shows a year, and 21-to-35s focused on the nightlife side of an event. Track record The festival, now in its 15th year, draws over 20,000 guests annually. Brand presence Concord Pacific is the presenting sponsor, with partners including Marcon, KPU, Dawson + Sawyer, FortisBC, Port of Vancouver and Guildford Town Centre.
