‘Tis the season for all things merry and bright on the Santa Barbara South Coast. Swap snow for soft, coastal sand this winter and savor all of the festive things The American Riviera® has to offer. December boasts a variety of holiday events, live performances, rejuvenating celebrations and more. Think: Parade of Lights, a Christmas-themed bar and live holiday performances.

Here is a list of December activities in the Santa Barbara area.
