Noches de Ronda at the Santa Barbara County Courthouse Garden

The Sunken Gardens of the Santa Barbara County Courthouse came alive when the sun went down on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings for the annual Noches de Ronda (Nights of Gaiety) celebrations of Fiesta. This free event featured more than 200 performers presenting a variety of spectacular dances and songs from flamenco to Mexican folklórico dances and early California dances, along with many extremely talented singers. Here’s a peek at some of the fun from Saturday, August 3.
