A Dickens Holiday

Historic downtown Fayetteville is again being transformed into a Victorian-era experience, so roll back the clock for A Dickens Holiday! Horse-drawn carriage rides down Hay Street, pictures with Father Christmas, the smells of cider and gingerbread in the chilly air, and Ebenezer Scrooge himself, pursued by the ghost of Jacob Marley. As darkness approaches and the clock reaches 5 p.m., townspeople gather for the candlelight procession to the Market House, followed by fireworks. Afterward, the festivities continue on the streets and inside the Arts Council building, at "Annie's Alehouse."
