The Great Dickens Christmas Fair

Presented over five weekends, including the Friday after Thanksgiving, The GREAT DICKENS CHRISTMAS FAIR TRANSFORMS MORE THAN 140,000 square feet of the Cow Palace Exhibition Halls into an immersive recreation of CHRISTMAS EVE IN VICTORIAN LONDON.From the moment guests enter the Fair, the modern world gives way to bustling streets filled with hundreds of costumed characters — chimney sweeps and street vendors, sailors and shopkeepers, carolers and musicians, literary figures, colorful denizens of Victorian society, and, of course, Mr. Charles Dickens himself. Explore shops and handcrafted gifts, enjoy live entertainment, music and traditional holiday fare, and discover surprises around every corner. Engaging, entertaining and even educational, the Dickens Christmas Fair is a one-of-a-kind holiday experience for all ages. Bring your family, gather your friends, and step into the world of Dickens this holiday season.
