Join us on Dec. 1 and 2 for the City of San Diego's largest free holiday festival in beautiful Balboa Park. The family friendly event brings San Diegans together to enjoy the lights, the sounds, the attractions and of course, the amazing food.

Dr. Seuss’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas! is a wonderful, whimsical musical based upon the classic Dr. Seuss book. Back for another incredible year, the family favorite features the songs “Santa for a Day,” “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch,” and “Welcome, Christmas (Fah Who Doraze),” the delightful carol from the popular animated version of How the Grinch Stole Christmas! Celebrate the holidays as the Old Globe Theatre is once again transformed into the snow-covered Who-ville, right down to the last can of Who-hash.

With his Bantu Ensemble, rising star cellist, singer, improviser, and composer Abel Selaocoe moves with virtuosic grace across genres, broadening both the scope and audience of classical music while blending African and Western European traditions.

Join us as we continue our tradition of celebrating Dia De Los Muertos with the flavors and sounds of this family centric Mexican tradition. Large, beautifully dressed Catrina statues will welcome you as you discover ofrendas of mementos and flowers honoring loved ones who have passed.

Enjoy traditional day of the dead music and delicious food & beverages including Conchas, Pan de Muerto, Chamango, and Hot Cheetos Elote in a cup, micheladas, and margaritas.
