Seasonal: Dec 3 – Dec 31 (out of season right now) — 2026: Sandi tree lighting Thursday, Dec 3, 6-10pm on the West Palm Beach Waterfront (free). Nightly show schedule for the rest of December not posted yet -- last season ran nightly through Dec 31.
The world's only 35-foot, 700-ton holiday sand tree on the downtown Great Lawn, with nightly light-and-music shows, sand sculptures, a 50-foot Ferris wheel, and a sand bar where kids can dig.
Why kids love it
A giant sandbox under a light show on the waterfront. It's free, and the shows repeat every 15 minutes, so you can leave whenever.
