101 South Flagler Drive
West Palm Beach (on waterfront)

Visitors and locals alike look forward to this yearly event and 2021 is the 10th year for this famous one-of-a-kind Christmas Tree. A lot of work and planning goes into making Sandi this beautiful tropical-theme work of art. Using 700 tons of sand, the work starts middle of November with truckloads of sand from Miami area delivered to the site, plans for lightings are made and a team of 7 artists from the west coast of Florida begin sculpting this enormous Christmas Tree. A special spray is applied when the work is done to prevent any weather damage and to keep Sandi looking its very best.

Along with Sandi’s Lighting Ceremony there will be lots of activities in Sandi Land for the whole family. So make plans this year to come visit this always popular Holiday in Paradise.

In order to properly celebrate her double-digit birthday, the City is bringing back its annual Clematis by Night Holiday Tree Lighting, complete with a national act. Country music star Brooke Eden will headline the event on the West Palm Beach waterfront (100 N. Clematis Street).

Sandi’s world-famous light shows run from 6-10 PM on the quarter hour. See Sandi, Frankie the Fountain and their friends come to life nightly during music and light shows! Don’t miss the other four sculptures celebrating the sea-sun on Flagler Drive, my favorite is Sandi’s dog Duke.
