All things Christmas can be found at Plaza de Cesar Chavez including over 40 holiday displays, carnival rides for children, a roller-skating rink, dozens of Christmas trees, and of course hot chocolate and other classic, festive foods from local vendors.
"The last time I was here I was about 10 or 11. So it was really nice seeing it expand. Definitely a lot more people here too, and I got to bring my girlfriend over to experience it with me from Washington State," said Aaron Jussen, who grew up in San Jose.
Christmas in the Park is a non-profit organization that runs the free event through sponsorships, donations, grants and programs. Community groups, local schools, and other non-profit groups volunteer to decorate the Christmas trees. People from all over the Bay Area come to see them. "Of course, all the schools have their trees. So, we came to look at all the festive trees but also, I’m from Richmond. All my best friends wanted to see San Jose, and so I thought this would be a really good place to take them because it’s so festive, and you know, part of San Jose life," said Randrea Acda, an assistant principal with Alpha Public Schools in San Jose.
Santa Claus will be visiting there until Christmas Eve. Pictures with Santa are free, but you have to use your own camera to take them. Christmas in the Park is open every day from noon to 10pm including Christmas Day until Jan. 1. There’s also another part of the event at Lake Cunningham Park in San Jose where you can drive by to see festive holiday lights, but you will need to buy a ticket for that.
