For this year’s WinterFest, the Chamber, as part of its 100 year celebration, discovered that the residents of Vista, 100 years ago, had voted on a theme called “Viva Vista!”
It seemed appropriate that, 100 years later, that theme should be revived as part of a city-wide celebration for the holidays!
So, starting with the parade on Saturday, December 2nd,
Vista Christmas Parade NEW ROUTE
Then, the next day (Sunday, December 3rd from 3-8PM,)
Come join the official kickoff the holiday season with the family fun Vista Village Winterfest, featuring choral groups, Christmas tree lighting and surprise visits from the movies Frozen, Elf, Batman and more!

Be on the lookout for Batman, Catwoman, Ironman and the Batmobile who’ll be on hand for the tree lighting. Register early as a “Vista Villager” to get priority access for photos with the superheroes.
7 p.m.

And, that’s just the beginning…
