Get ready to kick off the holiday season in style at the 2023 Santa’s Arrival & Celebration in Mission Viejo! Mark your calendars for Sunday, November 26th, 2023, and join us at the Civic Center Plaza for a festive extravaganza. The fun begins at 3:00 PM and is open to kids of all ages – because, after all, who doesn’t love the magic of the holidays?

We’ve got a delightful lineup of activities to make this day memorable. For the crafty souls, there will be “make and take” craft projects, and holiday-themed games to keep the children entertained. A petting zoo adds an extra touch of whimsy, and the Interactive Bubble Pop Experience promises loads of bubbly fun. As the sun sets, get ready for an electrifying glow party that’ll light up the evening. And, of course, there will be delectable snacks and goodies available for purchase to keep you fueled and satisfied.

The Main Stage Entertainment will be the heart of the celebration, featuring live entertainment, enchanting holiday performances, and lively dance routines for everyone to revel in. As the grand finale, Santa himself will make a spectacular entrance on a fire engine. With the help of the children, he will usher in the holiday spirit by illuminating the Mission Viejo holiday lights, creating a magical moment you won’t want to miss.
