The tree lighting ceremony will include a countdown led by NYC Council Member Steve Levin, Calypso music by Brooklyn-based steel drum band JahPan, hot cocoa by Dumbo’s Jacques Torres, Santa Claus, and a toy drive (bring an unwrapped toy for a child ages 0-14) for the Big Brooklyn Holiday Toy Drive.
