Holiday Date Night in Irvine
For a special date night, try stopping by the Orange County Great Park. This East Irvine public space offers a yearly Holidayz at the Park event that usually runs from Thanksgiving week to the first week of the new year.
Check out the gorgeous outdoor light display at Palm Court, take a Christmas-themed art class, or watch a holiday movie outside under the stars. The Irvine Spectrum Center, a major outdoor mall that features several department stores and restaurants, also makes an excellent date-night destination for the Christmas season.
Each winter, a seasonal ice rink opens to the public, and the mall boasts a 108-foot Ferris wheel for a beautiful view of Irvine.
