ART OF TRAVEL & STYLE | South Coast Plaza the International Shopping Destination

Where the World Comes to Shop
South Coast Plaza has earned a reputation for attracting the World Traveler. For over four decades, since its opening in March 1967, Costa Mesa's South Coast Plaza has always been on the leading edge of style, fashion and innovation. So much so that shoppers from as near as down the street or as far away as Europe and Asia have made a pilgrimage to this destination that VISA named as one of the most famous streets in America to "Stay, Shop, and Dine", putting it in the lofty company of L.A.'s Rodeo Drive and New York's Madison and Fifth Avenues. In fact, along with the adjacent world-renowned Orange County Performing Arts Center, it is one of the reasons that coastal Orange County became known as the Orange Riviera; the center epitomizes the sophisticated, fashion-leading, culturally rich "soft urban" landscape that has made The OC -- and South Coast Plaza itself -- a coveted international destination.
