Laguna Beach Christmas Activities For All People, Faiths In 2021

LAGUNA BEACH, CA — If you are looking for ways to celebrate the season this holiday, here are some things going on around our town you may or may not be aware of. Friday starts the holidays off right with the annual Laguna Beach Hospitality Night and the lighting of the community's holiday Christmas tree.

On Friday, the Laguna Presbyterian Church at 415 Forest Ave, said they would welcome guests for tamales, cookies and cider. Laguna Beach's Hospitality Night Tree lighting was planned for 6:10 p.m. at the Peppertree parking lot. See the full Hospitality Night schedule, and all parking information HERE.
