Top Events happening in Big Bear in November
8th Annual Turkey Trot Race
November 26
Meadow Park
After the Thanksgiving feast comes the need to move or trot at least. Get moving again with the Big Bear’s 8th Annual Turkey Trot. You can run a 3-mile, 6-mile, or 9-mile race and enjoy a quick 10-minute yoga warm-up before the 3-mile race. So dress like a turkey, take a stretch and get trotting.
Big Bear Mountain Ski Resorts
Bear Mountain & Snow Summit
Get ready because Bear Mountain and Snow Summit Resorts are preparing to open up for skiing and snowboarding in November. Enjoy the thrill of high energy mountain experiences with breathtaking views.
Orionid Meteor Shower
Dark Wilderness (away from town)
The Earth is passing through the stream of debris left behind by Comet Halley, the parent comet of the Orionid shower. Find a viewing spot away from bright lights on the mountain and look around 1 AM or until just before dawn.
South and North Taurids Meteor Shower

The North and South Taurids combine to provide a nice sprinkling of meteors. When Taurus the Bull is highest in the sky, you will see the maximum numbers at around 12 AM. Taurid meteors are slow-moving, but sometimes very bright.
The peak night is going to be November 11 (morning of November 12).
