Preparations for our 77th Annual Festival are underway.
Mark your calendar and join the fun on November 7 and 8, 2025.
The Pilgrim Place Festival returns in November for the 77th year of fun! We welcome neighbors and friends of all ages to enjoy a Claremont community tradition, which was started by Pilgrim Place residents in 1948.
Festival features artisan booths from our talented residents, offering one-of-a-kind, handcrafted items. These include paintings, pottery, fine jewelry, woodcrafts, stained glass, quilts, woven and knitted items, and more. You will also find countless gently used items, such as furniture, housewares, holiday décor, framed artwork, jewelry, clothing, books, fine China, and unique international treasures. In addition, you can purchase plants, produce, and collectable stamps and coins.
Families will enjoy a wide range of children’s activities at Festival, including crafts, rides, educational live animal exhibits, and learning about the native Tongva peoples. We are proud to showcase a variety of musical entertainment featuring local artists and ensembles. And of course, the Festival Food Court offers a variety of delicious and affordable snacks and meal choices. You won’t want to miss the selection of pies, jams, jellies, and baked goods!
In addition to bringing the community together, Festival raises funds for the Pilgrim Place Resident Health and Support Program, which enables our residents to remain in their homes and to live with dignity, even when the costs of daily living or unexpected medical expenses exceed their resources.
Pilgrim Place is a respected retirement community focused on the core values of justice, peace, and care of the earth.
