The Coronado Historical Association invites you and your family to join us for the final installment of the 2024 Wine & Lecture Series: Holiday Traditions at the Hotel del Coronado. Bring the whole family to experience the magic of the Hotel del Coronado’s holiday history with CHA’s Vice President, Robin Siara. For 135 years, the Hotel Del has brought holiday cheer to locals and visitors alike with enchanting events. From the world’s first electrically lit outdoor Christmas tree and charming Victorian teas to today’s Skating by the Sea, these traditions have always dazzled and delighted. Come celebrate with us as we journey back in time to enjoy the holiday heritage of our island’s historic treasure.

Festive refreshments along with wine for adults will be served.

All aboard the North Pole Limited! Your magical journey begins at the festive Campo Depot, where you’ll collect your tickets in our historic waiting room.

Enjoy a uniquely-San Diego experience at one of our city’s most iconic historic landmarks. Make the climb on a guided tour that highlights the origins of Balboa Park and the histories of some of the many diverse communities that call the region home. All tours culminate in breathtaking 360-degree views of San Diego from the Tower’s eighth-floor viewing deck–from the Pacific Ocean in the west to the Cuyamaca Mountains in the east, and beyond.

 Learn more about the California Tower, what to expect on a tour, and get a sneak peek of the views at CaliforniaTower.org.

With a variety of tasks to complete, our Balboa Park Scavenger Hunt allows participants to tap into their teammates’ varied talents and skills, highlighting the power of working as a group. Photo and video missions are interspersed with problem solving tasks, allowing for lasting team building memories – perfect for the next company meeting or end-of-year party.
