Laguna Beach Arts & Events

The Sawdust Festival

Laguna Beach is well known for its summer festivals and love for the arts. One of my favorite events is the Sawdust Festival, held during summer and winter since 1967. Local Laguna Beach artists feature welding sculptures, handmade jewelry, glass blowing, and more.

I personally love buying ceramics there for the succulents I have scattered around my house. My favorite part is watching my children create their own ceramic vases and cups on the pottery wheel. They look forward to expressing their creativity every year.

The Pageant of the Masters

The Pageant of the Masters at The Festival of Arts features life-sized recreations of world-famous artwork. Over 500 volunteers pose on stage to look exactly like famous paintings, sculptures, and other works of art. It is truly breathtaking.

Music in the Park

I absolutely love Music in the Park, which takes place at Bluebird Park every Sunday evening during summer. The community sings and dances at free concerts featuring tribute bands like The Beach Boys. I always set up a picnic before the concert to get an awesome view of the stage.

One of the things that makes Laguna Beach truly beautiful and unique is its public art. More than 100 pieces of artwork are scattered around town, reflecting its heritage as an artist colony founded in the early 20th century.

National Geographic Gallery

Laguna Beach is a mecca for artists with over 100 galleries and studios. One of my favorites is the National Geographic fine art gallery, showcasing stunning landscape and wildlife photography on oversized canvases. A large portion of their proceeds supports wildlife conservation.

At any festival or gallery in Laguna Beach, I know my family and I will have a fantastic time, always amazed by the talent and hard work invested in each event.

Pro Tip: Plan your visit to Laguna Beach events early, as tickets can sell out quickly during peak season. Check event dates and book in advance to ensure you don’t miss out on the best experiences!

I hope you get to attend some of these events in Laguna Beach soon! Here are a few more popular events in Orange County:

If you’re considering moving to a city with a great community and year-round events, Laguna Beach is an excellent choice. I’d love to grab a bite at Zinc Cafe with you and discuss how I can help!
