More than 1 million visitors are expected during the season, according to [Yahoo](https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/articles/cityplace-holiday-experience-begins-nov-185539273.html).\n\n## Related Ross Opens Season of Glow at CityPlace\n\nThe season begins with a community celebration from 5 to 9 p.m. On November 14, featuring the first snowfall and light display, the opening of Santa's Workshop presented by Bank of America, and performances by Richie Nuzz, Ballet Palm Beach and others. Audi West Palm Beach, the official luxury automotive partner for the holiday season, plans to display the all-new flagship Audi SQ9 during the kickoff, and guests using CityPlace's valet service during the event will receive a complimentary Audi-branded portable charger while supplies last.\n\nKenneth A. Himmel, president and CEO of [Related Ross](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/005xcg5/related-ross), said: \"CityPlace has always been a gathering place for the residents and visitors of West Palm Beach, and the holidays give us an opportunity to create something truly memorable for our community.\" He added that Season of Glow builds on traditions while introducing \"a new level of creativity, design and discovery across the destination.\"\n\nThe new Discovery Tree presented by Florida Power & Light Company will serve as the centerpiece, rising above an animated compass rose and glass floor in the center of CityPlace. A propertywide display designed by Blachere Illumination will extend from the Discovery Tree to the Wishing Tree and nearby businesses, with illuminated canopies, archways and sculptures along streets, plazas and gathering areas. According to the announcement, Blachere Illumination has designed displays for the Champs-Élysées in Paris, Harrods in London and Hudson Yards in Manhattan.\n\nWebber Hudson, executive vice president of retail leasing and asset management at Related Ross, said: \"The holidays are one of the most anticipated times of year at CityPlace, and Season of Glow gives us an opportunity to build on what makes the season so special.\" He said the season brings together \"exceptional design, entertainment, dining and community traditions in one destination.\"\n\nArtificial snowfall shows will run daily from November 14 through December 31, with 10-minute shows at 6:30, 7:30 and 8:30 p.m. Accompanied by a curated playlist. Live seasonal entertainment will include Ballet Palm Beach performances and programming celebrating Chanukah and Kwanzaa.

Additional programming includes complimentary gift wrapping, cookie decorating, hot cocoa and chocolate gifts from [Bissinger's Handcrafted Chocolatier](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/000sn6d/bissinger-s-handcrafted-chocolatier), which will also operate a seasonal hot chocolate stand selling hot drinks and handcrafted chocolate gifts.\n\nBank of America will present two outdoor holiday movie nights on the CityPlace center lawn from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. On Friday, November 20 and Friday, December 18, featuring an LED display, lounge seating, pop-up activities, photo opportunities and giveaways.
