The 33rd Annual Hayes Valley Holiday Stroll

Join Us for an Evening of Holiday Merriment

Friday, December 1, from 5 until 9 p.m.

Kick off the holidays with the Hayes Valley Holiday Stroll, a neighborhood tradition for 33 years! Stroll around the neighborhood surrounded by music, holiday lights, and decorated windows. Visit the shops for in-store activities, wine & treats, and special promotions.

The Hayes Valley Holiday Stroll features live music, strolling entertainment, drag queen ambassadors in holiday finery, carolers, a Holiday Window contest, fabulous shopping, a photo booth, and so much more!

This year we are very excited to welcome a real, live sugar plum fairy, Principal Dancer Sasha De Sola from the San Francisco Ballet and the Nutcracker as one of our Holiday Window contest judges.

The Stroll is family friendly! From 5 until 7 p.m. events for the kids will include face painting, wreath making, the Abominable Snow Man, DJ Sam Richter, and more surprises.

Of course our celebrated local restaurants & bars will be open, some with special hours and promotions. Watch this space for regular updates.

Entertainment throughout the neighborhood will include Strolling Carolers, Dancing Christmas Trees, Mrs. Claus(es), a photo booth (sponsored by Fig & Thistle, be sure to look for the van!), and more.
