Bubbly in Willow Glen, snow showers at Santana Row

Neighborhood Notes

WILLOW GLEN>>Sparkling wine aficionados can sip and stroll their way down Lincoln Avenue on Dec. 7, 2-5 p.m., during Willow Glen’s Holiday Bubbly Walk. Festive sweaters are recommended; strolling while sipping is actually not, as alcohol must be imbibed at one of the 25 locations pouring it before continuing down the avenue.

Early bird tickets are $60 or $65 after Dec. 2 at https://www.willowglen.org/willow-glen-bubbly-walk.

ROSE GARDEN>>It’s snowing at Santana Row every Tuesday and Saturday in December. There’ll be snow showers and holiday tunes every 30 minutes from 6-8 p.m. in Park Valencia in front of Maggiano’s.

Also on Tuesdays in December leading up to Christmas, visitors to Santana Row can enjoy holiday performances featuring local community entertainment on the main stage in Santana Row Park from 6-8 p.m.
