About Our Events in Claremont

About Pilgrim Place Events in Claremont, CA. One of our biggest events, the Pilgrim Place Festival has been a Claremont tradition for nearly eighty years.

Events at Pilgrim Place reflect who we are as a community — values-driven, intellectually curious, and rooted in service. Many of our gatherings are open to the broader Claremont community and welcome neighbors of all ages.

The Pilgrim Place Festival has been a Claremont tradition for nearly eight decades, drawing thousands each November for two days of food, music, handmade crafts, and shared celebration.

Our First Saturday Sales bring the spirit of the Festival to the community year-round, featuring books, furniture, housewares, clothing, fine art, plants, and vintage treasures.

Throughout the year, we also host resource fairs, lectures, and community gatherings that reflect our commitment to lifelong learning and connection.
