The competition begins Wednesday, November 28th every evening from 7-10 PM and runs through Sunday afternoon December 2nd with the awards ceremony from 3-6PM. Its free and open to the public.
It is held in front of the Coral Gables landmark 550 Biltmore Way building underneath the well-known 32 foot Poinsettia tree, a local holiday “landmark” in itself, not to be missed!
