Vallejo is THE place in California to celebrate the holiday season. Destined to become a family tradition, Six Flags Discovery Kingdom presents their inaugural Holiday in the Park, the BIGGEST HOLIDAY CELEBRATION in Northern California! Enjoy your favorite rides and attractions along with Santa’s Workshop, Candy Cane Lane, Toyland and don’t miss the World’s Biggest Christmas Tree. Plan to spend the night and take in so many other Vallejo holiday favorites like the 22nd Annual Messiah Sing-A-Long, a lighted boat parade, concerts by the Vallejo Choral Society and the 12th Annual Christmas Concert at St. Peter’s Chapel on Mare Island. Make Vallejo your home base and check out many other holiday events so close by. It’s just a scenic ferry ride to San Francisco and fabulous shopping at PIER 39 or a short drive to visit the Jelly Belly Candy Company, the Napa Valley Wine Train or COPIA, America’s Center for Wine, Food & the Arts for special holiday events. And don’t forget to check out Downtown Vallejo for some unique holiday gifts!

	Recently the US Navy announced the good news that Mare Island is the “only viable candidate” to host the historic battleship USS Iowa as a memorial and museum in Vallejo. Did you know that the USS Iowa is the only Navy ship with a bathtub?
	Did you know that the reason Georgia Street east of Sonoma Boulevard is so wide is because there were street car tracks down Georgia Street until 1940?
