When the local speakeasy decides to step aside for a flamboyant limited engagement, you might want to have a look. Pearl Social Cocktail Club once again goes on hiatus in November until January to bring you Santa Barbara’s original Miracle® at Pearl Social Cocktail Club. This Funk Zone cocktail bar has just announced dates for the fourth year of this annual holiday destination that attracts Christmas lovers near and far. Fans can expect the unexpected as Miracle unveils an all-new, over-the-top experience. This season, step into a shimmering snowglobe of holiday magic.
Opening day is Saturday, November 16, 2024, and will run daily through Wednesday, January 1, 2025. Reservations open to the public on November 1, 2024, on RESY.
Guests will experience the holidays in a whole new Christmas light, with over-the-top holiday decor, displays, and a cocktail menu like you’ve never sipped before. With merchandise—like kooky Christmas collectible ceramic cocktail vessels—and yuletide cheer aplenty, this scene is something everyone in Santa Barbara has to see to believe. Miracle’s reservation-recommended experience is a must for every tinsel-loving, nostalgic Christmas fan and the ideal venue for your social or work crew to ring in the holidays with extra pizzazz.

Concept/Background:
Miracle is a Christmas-themed pop-up cocktail bar that serves holiday cocktails in a festive setting. With kitschy holiday décor, professionally-developed cocktails, and the nostalgic energy of the best office party you’ve ever been to, Miracle is sure to get even the grouchiest Grinch in the holiday spirit.
The concept was born in 2014 when upon the advice of his mother, owner Greg Boehm decided to halt construction of what was to be his new East Village cocktail bar called Mace and transformed the unfinished space into a pop-up bar serving holiday-themed drinks among over-the-top Christmas decorations. As crowds swarmed the NYC location, Boehm’s friends throughout the bar industry asked how they could recreate the holiday magic on their own turf and expansion became inevitable. The following year, Miracle expanded to 4 locations and in 2016, it went worldwide with pop-ups in Greece, Montreal, and Paris. Currently, Boehm and manager Joann Spiegel are pleased to expand the concept to all corners of the US, plus pop-ups in Canada, Europe, Asia, and Central America.
