Pageant of the Masters®

Art comes alive – literally – at the Pageant of the Masters, Laguna's famous one-of-a-kind theatrical “living art” performance. Over 500 volunteers from Laguna Beach and surrounding communities are transformed into life-sized re-creations of some of the world's most famous paintings, sculptures, and other works of art. Elaborate lighting, stunning makeup, costumes and props render each scene an impressive audience-enthralling imitation of the original piece of art. And it's not just the people who bring art to life. There is live orchestra music and always an element of surprise. Presented nightly in a starlit amphitheater from July 7 through August 31, 2013.
