La Verne’s 26th Annual Winter Wonderland

A snowy morning of holiday fun at Heritage Park

December 7, 2025

If your kids have been wishing for snow, they will get their chance at La Verne’s 26th Annual Winter Wonderland on Saturday, December 13, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Heritage Park will be transformed into a cheerful snowy play space, complete with real snow and plenty of hands-on activities that make this event a favorite for local families.

Children ages 1 to 11 can enjoy two snow runs and two snow play areas, perfect for little ones who want to slide, scoop, or simply experience snow up close. Sliding saucers are provided, and families are encouraged to dress their kids in winter gear such as mittens, gloves, boots, and jackets.

The fun does not stop there. Kids can make crafts, sip on a warm cup of hot cocoa, and pick up a special treat at Mrs. Claus’ Cozy Kitchen. Santa will be waiting at the gazebo for photos, so parents should bring a camera to capture the moment.

Families will also find food and refreshments available for purchase, along with craft vendors offering early holiday shopping opportunities. Please note that dogs are not allowed at this event.

Ticket Info
$15 per child, cash only
Tickets can be purchased online or in person at the La Verne Parks and Recreation Office through December 11. Day of event purchases are cash only.
