About this adventure

Victoria Gardens open-air town center brings the sensation of a white winter to Rancho Cucamonga with its beloved Holiday Magical Snowfall and synchronized light shows. Festivities commence in early November with Santa's Arrival and the lighting of the massive live 45-foot Christmas tree in Chaffey Town Square, accompanied by Dickens-costumed carolers, brass bands, and holiday craft booths. Every evening throughout December, artificial snowflakes flutter down over the town square lawn to seasonal holiday music, delighting toddlers and children dancing underneath the flurry. Families can visit Santa inside his festive garden cottage for photos, ride the vintage carousel on South Mainstreet, and grab warm cinnamon sugar pretzels and cocoa. Stroller accessibility is seamless throughout the flat pedestrian streets.
