Winter Fantasy

Winter Fantasy is a one-of-a-kind holiday art festival that offers a festive shopping experience. Visitors are invited to peruse unique, handcrafted gifts of art from 150 local and international artists and makers. Open every Saturday and Sunday from November 19th until December 18th, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., including Black Friday, November 25th and Friday, December 16th. 

Opening Day began with the annual tree-lighting ceremony and a musical performance by the Top of the World Elementary Honor Choir, followed by an observance honoring 18 community trees, decorated by local non-profits. Laguna Beach residents receive free admission after 3 p.m. with a valid ID. 

Winter Fantasy delivers a festive entertainment schedule every day of the show! Three stages showcase live music by local musicians and community performances, and additional entertainment includes complimentary photos with Santa daily, marionette puppet shows, glassblowing, a petting zoo, balloon artistry, magic acts and much more! 

Three demo booths offer free hands-on festival art classes each day. Studio One and the Children’s Art Spot features painting, mixed media, and crafts for all ages, while the Ceramic Center provides a complimentary pottery wheel and hand-building experience.
