Kick off Your Holiday Shopping

Santa Visits at Town Hall

Annual Christmas Tree Lighting

It will make you picture sleigh rides, chestnuts roasting on open fires, and Jack Frost painting the whole town white.  That may be a bit of a dream. But due to its Cuyamaca Mountains location, the holiday time in Julian gets closer to that dream than most spots in Southern California. You’ll feel a nip in the air, sniff wood fires, and maybe catch a glimpse of snow capped mountains surrounding town.

The holiday season in Julian also offers an opportunity to shop at small boutiques,
without the crowds or lines, for one-of-a-kind gifts.
