Glendora Winter Arts Festival 2026: Family-Friendly Fun in the Village
Every year, Glendora kicks off the new year with a celebration of creativity, community, and family fun—the Winter Arts Festival, returning this year on Saturday and Sunday, February 6–7, 2026. Held in Glendora Village, this festival draws local families, artists, and visitors from nearby cities for two days of entertainment, hands-on activities, and delicious food.
The festival showcases local artists and artisans, featuring everything from paintings and photography to handmade crafts. Strolling through the Village, families can enjoy live music, dance performances, and interactive art stations designed for children. The event is designed to encourage creativity, learning, and community engagement.
For families with young children, the craft booths offer a chance to make your own keepsakes. Activities include painting mini canvases, making simple sculptures, and decorating wooden ornaments. Kids can also meet live performers in kid-friendly shows throughout the day.
Timing and Parking Tips:
-The festival runs 10:00 AM–5:00 PM both days.
-Arrive by 9:30 AM if you want to secure easier parking in the Village parking structure or the library lot, especially if you’re bringing a stroller.
- Side streets can become crowded by mid-morning, so early arrival helps with logistics and ensures a relaxed start.
The event also features food trucks and local vendors, offering seasonal treats like hot cocoa, baked goods, and savory bites. Parents can relax while kids explore, making it a truly family-friendly outing.
One of the highlights of the festival is the live art demonstrations. Local artists create pieces on the spot, allowing visitors to see their creative process. It’s both educational and inspiring, giving children a chance to ask questions and learn about artistic techniques.
The festival is not just about arts—it’s a great way to experience Glendora’s Village. Newcomers and families considering relocating to the area can get a sense of local businesses, the walkable layout, and community atmosphere. Many families use this weekend as a chance to explore shops, cafés, and streets they might not otherwise visit.
Tips for Attending with Kids:
- Bring a baby carrier if you have toddlers—sidewalks and festival areas can get tight.
- Dress in layers; February mornings in Glendora are cool, warming to mild temperatures by midday.
- Carry water and snacks; even though food trucks are available, having a backup keeps children comfortable.
This festival is more than just an arts event—it’s a community tradition that celebrates creativity, togetherness, and family-friendly fun. Whether you’re visiting for the first time or have attended for years, the Winter Arts Festival is an excellent way to start the new year, enjoy Glendora Village, and create memories with your family.
