’Tis the season for family fun and holiday cheer as Great Park transforms into a winterscape featuring holiday-themed art, music, and decorations. Enjoy festive lights, photo ops, and family activities November 19, 2022 to January 1, 2023. There’s something for everybody:
- Take a stroll through the Palm Court adorned with holiday decorations and a larger-than-life airplane, paying tribute to the park’s military roots, playfully taken over by the Grinch;
- Visit the Artist Studios to enjoy interactive displays and festive photo backdrops for the best holiday selfie stations you’ll find this season;
- Curl up in your most festive, warm pajamas and join us for a Pajama Party Movie Night Saturday, December 10, 2022. Registration will be open Wednesday, November 30, 2022, at yourirvine.org.
