The lighting of Attallah Piazza with thousands of twinkling white lights for the winter holidays is a sight to behold. But within days of their debut at the annual Winterfest celebration, students dive into finals and head home. To give everyone a little more time to enjoy the display, Winterfest this year is Wednesday, Nov. 18.
So invite the neighbors and get ready for one of Chapman University’s jolliest traditions. The festivities begin at 5 p.m. with free cocoa, live performances of seasonal music by student ensembles and a dramatic reading of
‘Twas the Night Before Christmas
. Doy’s Holiday Tree — named for Trustee Doy Henley – will be illuminated, along with the other festive trees throughout Attallah Piazza. Photos with Santa will follow at 6 p.m.
And there will be surprises. We hear the weather report may call for a bit of snow!
Admission is free and open to the public.
