Our Comprehensive List of San Francisco Bay Area Holiday Festivals And Events

Friday December 5, 2014

Since we’re now knee-deep in the holiday season, here is a list of holiday festivals going on in and around town from our Fall/Winter food, art, and music festival guide. There’s practically something going on every night.

ALSO, this isn’t really a festival, but Winter Walk SF is now open down in Union Square. Until January 1, Stockton Street between Ellis Street and Geary Boulevard (you know, where all that Central Subway construction is infront of the Apple store) have been turned into a green, public plaza. The walkway will feature Off the Grid food trucks, Ghirardelli square samples, carolers, live music, and an evening light show.
