Littleton’s Candlelight Walk is the town’s holiday kickoff, and the 2026 date is Friday, Nov. 27, the day after Thanksgiving. The City of Littleton lists it from 5 to 8 p.m. on Main Street in downtown Littleton, with festive performers, holiday music and lights, grab-and-go food and drinks from local restaurants, and the shops open along the way.
The evening ends with a tree lighting with Santa, followed by a drone show. The Littleton Downtown Development Authority’s listing adds a holiday parade, free hot cocoa and warm cider, and photos with Santa along the route; that listing gives a 5:30 to 7 p.m. window, so the parade and lighting likely fall inside the city’s 5 to 8 p.m. evening. The city says more details will be posted closer to the date, including a drink map.
