Early Christmas celebration in Luzerne County

This year Wilkes-Barre opted for a scaled-down version of its traditional parade and tree lighting.

WILKES-BARRE, Pa. — Christmas came a little early this year in Luzerne County due to COVID-19 concerns.

This year, Wilkes-Barre opted for a scaled-down version of its traditional parade.

It was originally scheduled for Saturday, but it was moved because of the coronavirus.

Santa waved to the crowd from a city fire truck while police officers and firefighters led the pack.

The city's 25 feet tall tree was lit to help mark the start of the Christmas season in Wilkes-Barre.
