The holiday spirit is descending upon Los Angeles with a vibrant, brand-new extravaganza! The Original Farmers Market proudly presents “Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree,” a jubilant celebration set to ignite the season with cheer and merriment. Mark your calendars for Sunday, December 3rd, from 2 to 7 PM, as this event promises an afternoon brimming with festive activities catering to the entire family.

Nestled at 6333 W. Third Street in Los Angeles, the iconic Original Farmers Market stands as the backdrop for this dazzling holiday affair. Renowned as a local treasure and a sought-after tourist destination since its inception in 1934, the market has curated an event that encapsulates the true essence of the season.

What’s in Store?

Prepare for an array of delights! The lineup reads like a wishlist of holiday joy, featuring activities tailored for all ages. Imagine capturing timeless memories with a live reindeer photo opportunity or being serenaded by the harmonious tunes of Grand Arts High School holiday carolers.

For pet lovers, Love & Leashes hosts a heartwarming dog adoption, offering an opportunity to give a furry friend a forever home. Meanwhile, El Granjero Cantina sets up a tantalizing churro pop-up, tempting taste buds and elevating the festive atmosphere.

The little ones can indulge their creativity at the Santa Hat decorating craft activity, crafting their own holiday masterpieces. And for those seeking the perfect wrapping for their presents, The Salvation Army steps in with expert gift-wrapping services, all while supporting a noble cause through their toy and food drives. As a token of gratitude for donations, Dylan’s Candy Bar sweetens the deal with full-size chocolate bars for contributors to the Salvation Army drives.

The stage comes alive from 3 PM onwards, welcoming live musical performances that promise to transport attendees to the golden eras of the 50s and 60s.
