From traditional costume, to beers and those Aebleskivers - the Danish Days Festival pays homage to the early settlers in the Santa Ynez Valley.
"Solvang got settled by Danish immigrants when it became a city in 1911," explains Thomas Birkholm, the co-chair of Danish Days.
He says the festival means a lot to the community.
"My grandfather came over in 1951 to Solvang and established a bakery. We cook aebelskivers, which are like a round Danish pancake, and we cook those in the street. There's Danish folk dancing and Lego tents for the kids to play with a bunch of Legos. If you didn't know, Legos were invented in Denmark," said Birkholm.
Solvang Danish Days runs from Friday, September 20 through Sunday, September 22.
