The Great Dickens Christmas Fair: a costumed adventure into the holiday parties of Victorian England. Hundreds of costumed players bring to life 100,000 square feet of theatrically-lit music halls, pubs, dance parties, and winding lanes, inviting patrons to sing along, waltz, shop, feast and toast the Season!
Enter the golden glow of twilight in Charles Dickens’ London Town – a city filled with lively and colorful characters from both literature and history. Enticing aromas of roasted chestnuts and hearty foods fill the air. Cries of street vendors hawking their wares ring out above the bustling crowd. One hundred lamp lit shops are filled to overflowing with Christmas presents.
The Great Dickens Christmas Fair offers a sampling of the finest in musical, dance, magic and novelty acts, an outrageous Christmas pantomime, characters from Alice in Wonderland, Punch & Judy puppet shows and of course, Mad Sal’s Dockside Alehouse where patrons can join in singing rowdy favorites or watch the bold high-kicking gals take to the stage in the wicked can-can! The immensely popular, roguish production of the “Saucy French Postcard Tableaux Review” returns for a second year in a row. It truly is a Christmas wonderland!
Directed by the Patterson Family, who created the popular Renaissance Pleasure Faire at Black Point in Marin County for 28 years, the Dickens Christmas Fair is a treasured Bay Area tradition since 1970.
