Christmas in Carnation 2025 brought the community together for an afternoon filled with holiday magic, small-town tradition, and joyful connection in the heart of downtown Carnation. Families gathered at Tolt Commons to welcome Santa’s special arrival, enjoy festive treats and warm drinks, shop from local vendors and artisans, and celebrate the season together beneath the glow of the community tree lighting.

Hosted by the Carnation Chamber of Commerce with the support of dedicated volunteers, sponsors, and local businesses, the event highlighted the warmth and spirit that make the Snoqualmie Valley so special during the holidays. From professional Santa photos and children’s story time to shopping local and gathering with neighbors, Christmas in Carnation continues to create meaningful memories while supporting local businesses and strengthening community connections year after year.
