DELRAY BEACH, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2025 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — Delray Beach residents looking to add a little glow to their holiday plans can head to Old School Square this Wednesday. The Avenue Church and the city are teaming up to host a community Christmas Eve service right under the stars and the glow of the iconic 100-foot Christmas tree. It’s designed as a welcoming space for anyone in town—whether you’ve lived here for decades or are just visiting for the holidays—to take a breather and soak in the season.
The evening kicks off at 6 p.m. with live holiday music performed by Avenue Worship, setting the stage for a classic candlelight service starting at 6:30 p.m. Standing outdoors in the heart of downtown Delray offers a unique atmosphere for the traditional service, focusing on connection and what organizers call the “true spirit” of the holiday. Planners suggest arriving early to grab a good spot on the lawn at 51 N. Swinton Ave.
