Cambria Christmas Market
Tickets are now on sale for the Cambria Christmas Market! This magical holiday event, preparing for its 14th season, features 3 million twinkling Christmas lights, artisan vendors, visits from Santa, a fun train ride, cozy fire pits, live music, delicious food & drink and so much more. Check out our curated itineraries and start planning an unforgettable Central Coast holiday evening your family will treasure for years to come.
Gates to the Christmas Market open at 5 p.m. and close at 8:30 p.m. Entry is strictly prohibited after the gates close, so please arrive early. Make sure you allow yourself at least two hours to view the market and lights. Closing is at 9 p.m. sharp each night.
Ticket prices range from $27 to $45, depending on the date. Prices increase by $10 at the door, and the Christmas Market is a popular event that is expected to sell out fast, so pre-purchasing your tickets is recommended. You may also consider purchasing an overnight package—partner hotels in Cambria often sell out before opening night, so don’t wait to reserve your stay.
If you would like to experience seeing the lights without the crowds, Cambria Pines Lodge will also be offering Lights Only Nights. The Christmas Market closes down with no vendors, Santa, train, food, beverages, or music, leaving you free to wander through the twinkling light displays at your leisure. This access is exclusively available to those spending the night at Cambria Pines Lodge.
