Corona del Mar walks the Christmas Walk at 38th holiday fest

Thousands of people strolled through Corona del Mar’s village business district on Sunday for the 38th annual Christmas Walk, a holiday tradition presented by the Corona del Mar Chamber of Commerce.

Visitors could browse a vendor fair, hear live music by more than a dozen bands, watch performances by high school and community organizations, sample offerings from local restaurants and the Newport Beach Fire Department’s Fireman’s Grill barbecue, imbibe at a beer and wine garden and set the children loose for bounce houses, bungee jumping, a petting zoo and photos with Santa Claus.
