From Black Friday through December 14, Malibu will come alive with 17 days of joy, community spirit, and special events inspired by Dick’s timeless charm. The goal is to spread happiness across the city and support local businesses recovering from recent wildfires—while giving fans from around the world a chance to celebrate together.

Event Highlights

Here’s what’s in store throughout the 17 days of Vandy Days:

Step back in time with classic favorites that made Dick a household name—and see his story come full circle.

Vandy Camps

Enjoy the whimsy of a vintage-style street fair, complete with stilt-walkers, clowns, magicians, face-painters, and more.
Participating Malibu retail centers will transform into mini circus wonderlands celebrating creativity and laughter—just like Dick’s iconic career.

Vandy Days Parade

Mark your calendar for Sunday, December 7.
The celebration kicks off at Santa Monica College / Malibu Library parking lot with a festive sidewalk parade beginning at 11:30 AM, ending at Malibu City Hall around noon.
Expect music, costumes, puppets, and a joyful stroll worthy of a Hollywood legend.
