Sundance Square Christmas Tree Brightens Up Downtown

The installation of the 2020 Fort Worth Christmas Tree at Sundance Square is now complete. Due to the pandemic and out of an abundance of caution, Sundance Square Plaza remains closed to the public and Santa Claus is doing his part to help prevent community spread, skipping his annual residency in the Plaza.

Visitors and guests of Sundance Square restaurants and shops, and families out driving to see all of Fort Worth’s holiday decorations, can view Sundance Square’s majestic tree from downtown streets and sidewalks with the most spectacular views up and down Main Street between the Fort Worth City Convention Center and the Tarrant County Courthouse, Sundance said in a news release.

Evening and weekend parking is free downtown.
