Special events are scheduled regularly at the Irvine Animal Care Center (such as the Super Pet Adoption and Home for the Holidays events), senior centers, the Irvine Fine Arts Center (such as the Studio Arts Festival and Holiday Faire) and the Great Park. Each year, the City also hosts the Irvine Global Village Festival, a free event featuring international cuisine, live entertainment, a Kids Village with crafts and activities, cultural and religious exhibits, and an international marketplace.

Information about upcoming events can be found on the City’s Special Events page.

Volunteers are often needed at these events. For more information about volunteer opportunities, please visit our Volunteer Opportunities page for current opportunities.
