The Season’s Best Address for Holiday Cheer

It’s officially the most magical time of the year, and Great Park Neighborhoods celebrate the season with festive lights, joyful moments, and community cheer. Just steps away, the Great Park and Wild Rivers are bringing even more holiday magic with immersive experiences and glowing displays you won’t want to miss.

The Great Park transforms into a glowing winter wonderland all season long. Twinkling lights, colorful décor, and illuminated walkways make the Palm Court Arts Complex the perfect spot for an evening stroll (hot cocoa encouraged). Just steps away, the Holidayz Pop-Up delivers whimsical backdrops, creative installations, and plenty of photo-ready moments for families and friends. Holidayz at the Park kicks off with the holiday tree lighting on December 6, 2025, and continues through January 4, 2026, filling the Great Park with immersive light displays and cheerful seasonal scenes. Explore all the holiday happenings at the City of Irvine.

New this season, the Dream Glow Festival at Wild Rivers Waterpark delivers a nighttime holiday spectacle like no other. The entire park comes alive after dark with sweeping lantern displays, radiant tunnels, and enchanting light scenes that invite you to wander, explore, and soak in the magic of the season. It’s a one-of-a-kind holiday experience perfect for anyone looking for something truly memorable.
