Thanksgiving is just one week away, which means the holiday season will be in full swing before we know it! While we deck the halls and break out the eggnog, SOCO Collection and The OC Mix in Costa Mesa are getting into the holiday spirit as well with a line-up of festive events and special promotions perfect for enjoying with your family and friends.
Whether you’re listening to jazz tunes at SOCO’s Live Music Tuesdays, getting some home inspiration from the Costa Mesa Home Tour Boutique, visiting with Santa at SOCO Holidays, or giving back to our community with the MaxLove Project, Orange County’s premier destination for shopping, dining, and design offers something for everyone. Read on for all the latest holiday happenings, and we will see you soon at SOCO!
Live Music Tuesdays at SOCO Collection
SOCO is making your holiday shopping a little more melodic with live music every Tuesday throughout the holiday season. Starting November 17, guests will enjoy live music in the SOCO Courtyard every Tuesday from 5-8 pm. The Mambo Italiano trio will delight guests with their lively renditions of jazz favorites that have made them a crowd favorite at venues across Orange County. Stop by for a delicious dinner or holiday gift shopping while listening to the songs of the season!
