Celebrate the Holiday Season in Victorian London!

The bustling streets of London, immortalized for all time by the mighty pen of Charles Dickens, form the living backdrop of your excursion into Christmas Past. You are a living part of a Victorian Christmas card come to life!

 


A Bay Area tradition since 1970, the Great Dickens Christmas Fair returns to the San Francisco Cow Palace Exhibition Halls for four weekends in 2010, including the Friday after Thanksgiving, from Friday, November 26 through Sunday, December 19, from 11am 'til 7pm.

 

Created by Ron & Phyllis Patterson, the fair is now produced by Kevin & Leslie Patterson & Red Barn Productions, who continue the family tradition of theatrical excellence through authenticity, participation, and playfulness.

 

Come wander the lanes of Victorian London, as the glow of twilight settles upon the city, with the scent of pine boughs & freshly baked scones floating in the air and the sound of carolers and holiday merrymakers accompanying your stroll.

• London is larger this year - over 120,000 square feet to explore!


• Visit shops bedecked with Christmastime finery and filled with unique treasures.


• Stop in for a hot toddy or a pint of Lagunitas at Mad Sal's Dockside Ale House, where the low-life hang out and the high-born drop in.


• Raise a champagne toast to the holidays at Fezziwig's Warehouse, the most cheerful spot in London.


• Enjoy rollicking entertainments on six stages and in the streets.


• Feast on fine foods from the British Empire and beyond.



• Rest a spell in Cuthbert's Tea House, for a sip of hot tea and cucumber sandwiches or scones.
