Congress Hall became a haven for families as it lit up Friday night for the holidays. Transforming into its own winter wonderland, Congress Hall was infused with holiday spirit and decorated from head to toe with Christmas trees, wreaths and garland. This year the Congress Hall Christmas tree was a 30-foot Blue Spruce Evergreen with over 8,000 colored lights.  The Congress Hall Festival Choir started the celebration with a performance in the Ballroom.  The annual fun and festive tree lighting followed.
