Los Angeles is not a snow-covered place in December and you won’t feel the below-zero temperatures for a Christmas feel, yes! But the holiday spirit is not less, thanks to the holiday activities that get you in the festive mood — even when it’s 70 and sunny!
With outdoor movie screenings, illuminated walks in botanical gardens, holiday plays, festive takeovers of theme parks, and Christmas lights all over town, here is a list of the city’s best events and things to do this season that makes L.A. a winter wonderland all month long where you and your loved ones will surely enjoy!
- L.A. Zoo Lights. This must be kids’ favorite, staying open after dark most nights through January! The event’s “Animals Aglow” edition has gone all in on oversized animal-shaped lanterns, and the result is a colorful, charming trail that celebrates the zoo’s natural inhabitants.
- Enchanted: Forest of Light. Get lost in a wonder abound across the 10 or so illuminated installations in Descanso Gardens’ holiday tradition. The botanical garden’s nighttime experience masterfully mixes hands-on art installations with atmospheric, luminescent forests, all against a background of uplit trees and shimmery sound effects.
- Holiday Time at Disneyland. As soon as the Halloween pumpkins disappear from Main Street, the holidays take over at Disneyland. The beloved theme park turns into the merriest place on earth for a full two months (Nov 10–Jan 7), with Christmas makeovers of popular rides and holiday-themed nighttime shows.
- Marina Del Rey Boat Parade. Bring a blanket and gather around Fisherman’s Village or Burton Chace Park to watch as 70 boats glide through the marina with holiday lights and decorations in competition. Categories include Best Theme, Best Animation, Best Band, Best Lights, and more.
- Yuletide Cinemaland. Street Food Cinema has put together a series of outdoor holiday screenings in the closest thing to a Dickensian town square in L.A.: Heritage Square. In between Victorian home tours, piano sing-alongs strolls through a light tunnel and sips on hot chocolate, mulled wine, and craft beer, you can catch screenings of flicks like Elf, Home Alone, Scrooged…and more!
- L.A. County Holiday Celebration. Gather up your friends and family and go hear L.A.’s biggest holiday show, which includes more than 20 choirs, music ensembles, and dance troupes from all over the city. The free three-hour show at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion celebrates L.A.’s multicultural observation of the holidays.
