Best events in
Fawnskin

Events and things to do in Fawnskin, CA, center on a tight-knit community spirit and the natural beauty of Big Bear Lake's North Shore. Known as the "quiet side," the town's social life revolves around outdoor activities and cherished local traditions rather than a bustling commercial district. For a broader selection of restaurants and nightlife, most people make the short drive to the south shore.

The North Shore's laid-back rhythm is punctuated by signature annual gatherings like the quirky Doo Dah Parade and the Loggers' Jubilee at the Fawnskin Recreation Area.
Live music finds a home during warmer months at the Big Bear Discovery Center Amphitheater, which hosts the popular Music in the Mountains concert series.
Community connection is a constant theme, with hubs like the Big Bear Moose Lodge #2085 hosting dinners and social events for members and guests.
