The City of Hollywood is hosting its Tree Lighting Celebration, the Real Hollywood Jazz Festival and an ArtWalk Downtown on Friday, Nov. 20, and Saturday, Nov. 21. The events are free and open to the public at ArtsPark at Young Circle and Downtown Hollywood.
Festivities begin Friday at 5 p.m., with the official tree lighting at 7 p.m. and a performance by the Dillard Center for the Arts Jazz Ensemble at 8 p.m.
Saturday’s lineup starts at 1 p.m. and runs into the evening, with performances by Nicole Yarling, Warren Wolf, Chuck Bergeron, Kandace Springs and Ron Carter and the Foursight Quartet, the last set at 5:30 p.m. The ArtWalk runs downtown from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. The city said music would continue on Hollywood Boulevard into the night.
