Celebrate the holiday season at SOCO Holidays this Sunday, December 13 from 3-6 p.m. Load up the car with family and friends to enjoy a free, family-friendly evening filled with live music, holiday activities, visits with Santa, face painting, and a photo booth. Complimentary gift-wrapping provided by Farrow & Ball will be available to holiday shoppers for a suggested donation to benefit Project Hope Alliance, a Costa Mesa non-profit dedicated to ending the cycle of homelessness for families in Orange County. After you shop SOCO and The OC Mix’s premier assortment of shops and boutiques, make sure to visit one of their award-winning restaurants for dining specials including festive holiday happy hours with mulled wine!
Orange County’s destination for inspiration will keep up the holiday cheer all month long with Live Music Tuesdays inside The OC Mix every Tuesday from 5-8 pm through December 29. Local icons The Mambo Italiano trio will delight with their lively renditions of jazz classics that have made them a crowd favorite at venues across Orange County. It’s the perfect excuse to stop by for a delicious dinner or holiday gift shopping while listening to the songs of the season.
