Join us in solidarity as Lafayette lights the night! We encourage everyone to turn on your lights Sunday, Dec. 6, 6pm.

What a year it has been. We will always remember 2020. Wouldn’t you agree we all need a little holiday cheer? The Lafayette Chamber of Commerce and the City of Lafayette invite you to share a moment in time with us that we can do all together but separately.

For the past seven years the Dana Green Team and Branagh Development have sponsored the twinkle lights up and down Mt. Diablo Blvd. Their donation helps the Chamber pay for the installation and maintenance of the lights that have a heartening effect on our downtown, giving us cheer and raising our spirits during the holiday season. Due to strict shelter-in-place guidelines we will not be able to schedule the annual “It’s A Wonderful Life in Lafayette.” However, on Sunday night, December 6, we will flip the switch to turn on the tree in Plaza Park and we invite you to have your holiday decorations up and ready to turn on at 6pm. Imagine how fun that will be in each neighborhood. Back at the Plaza Park, we’ll have the Holiday Snow Globe available for your Holiday Family Photo through December 25.

The Chamber's holiday mixer is typically our "mixer of the year" but let's not let Covid-19 stop us.

Join us for our December mixer which promises to be your opportunity to welcome our new members and network with fellow members and the community!

Special holiday music performances by Stevie Coyle of Mighty Fine Guitars and Mark Shaw, Remax Accord Real Estate Broker. And a beautiful silver locket give away by Morrison's Jewelers. It’s been a tough year and a little music and a jewelry gift will cheer up just about anyone!
