Yorba Linda packs most of its holiday calendar into the first two weeks of December, and two of the biggest events land on the same Saturday this year. Here is what has been announced so far for 2026, and what is still to come.
| Event | When | Where | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Breakfast with Santa | Sat, Dec 5, 9 to 11:30 am | Yorba Linda Community Center | $20 per person |
| Holiday on Main | Sat, Dec 5, 4 to 9 pm | Historic Main Street | Free |
| A Revolutionary Christmas | Tue, Dec 8, 5 to 9 pm | Nixon Library | Ticketed |
| Holidays on the Paseo | Date not yet announced | Town Center | TBA |
Breakfast with Santa: Saturday, December 5
The city's Breakfast with Santa is at the Yorba Linda Community Center, 4501 Casa Loma Avenue, from 9:00 to 11:30 am. The city lists it at $20 per person with a suggested age range of 3 to 8. Registration is handled by the city's Parks and Recreation Department; spots are limited, so it is worth signing up early.
Holiday on Main: Saturday, December 5
Holiday on Main is the city's best-loved holiday tradition, a free street festival on historic Main Street that has run for more than 30 years. This year it is listed for 4 to 9 pm. It is hosted by the Main Street merchants, and the Town Center next door makes an easy place to park and grab dinner beforehand. Arrive early, because parking near Main Street fills quickly.
If you have young children, the two events pair well: breakfast in the morning, a nap, then Main Street once the lights come on.
Christmas at the Nixon Library
The Richard Nixon Presidential Library decorates for the season every year. Event listings show an evening called A Revolutionary Christmas on Tuesday, December 8, from 5 to 9 pm, as a ticketed event. Last season the library also ran a holiday tree showcase from late November through early January that was included with regular museum admission. Check the Nixon Foundation's events page for this year's full schedule and tickets.
Holidays on the Paseo
The Yorba Linda Town Center has hosted a Holidays on the Paseo celebration in past seasons. A 2026 date had not been announced when this page was last updated. We will add it here as soon as it is.
