Bad Sweaters. Good Spirits.

Take your holiday spirit to new heights at Hotel Californian’s Ugly Christmas Sweater Sunset Sessions on the Mirador Rooftop. High above Santa Barbara, golden hour gives way to a festive evening of cocktails, irresistible beats, and sweaters that deserve their own moment in the spotlight.

From vintage knits to gloriously over-the-top creations, consider this your invitation to go all out. Gather your favorite people, hit the dance floor, and let a little holiday mischief take over.

Dress to impress in your holiday worst and enter the ugly sweater contest for the chance to win a complimentary one-night stay at Hotel Californian, complete with dinner at The Knock Kitchen & Cocktails.

Come festive. Leave unforgettable.

This event is for ages 21+.
