Get ready to eat, drink, and be merry! Winterfest, Mill Valley's beloved annual holiday celebration, returns to the Downtown Plaza on Sunday, December 6th, bringing an afternoon of festive fun, live entertainment, and holiday cheer for the whole family!

​

Join friends, neighbors, and fellow revelers as downtown Mill Valley transforms into a winter wonderland, complete with live music, dancing, a visit from Santa Claus, and plenty of activities to keep the little ones entertained.

​

This year's entertainment lineup features performances by Happy Feet, RoCo Dance, Marin Conservatory of Dance, and local favorite Hall Pass. Kids can also hop aboard the festive train ride around Lytton Square (1–4pm) while soaking up the holiday magic.

​

✨ New for 2026! Downtown Mill Valley is getting an extra dose of sparkle with a beautiful new holiday lighting installation illuminating Depot Plaza and beyond!

And don't miss the grand finale: the Community Christmas Tree Lighting at 5:30pm, when the Plaza comes alive with holiday lights and cheer!

🍽️ Make It a Dinner Date! After the festivities, keep the good times rolling with a delicious meal or holiday cocktail at one of downtown's popular restaurants, including Piazza D'Angelo, Playa, Corner Bar, La Ginestra, Paseo Bistro, or Bungalow 44.
