coming up:
A Unique holiday and shopping experience
A Dickens holiday!
On Friday, Nov. 29, 2019, Historic Downtown Fayetteville will be transformed into a unique holiday shopping experience! So roll back the clock with us for the 20th Annual A Dickens Holiday from 1 to 9 p.m.!
Horse-drawn carriages roll down Hay Street carrying shoppers the old-fashioned way, pass merchants’ windows adorned with beautiful Victorian holiday decorations, shop artisans and vendors for an array of delightful treats. Joyful children pose with Father Christmas for memory-laden pictures. The smells of cider and gingerbread permeate the chilly air. And there is Ebenezer Scrooge himself, pursued by the ghost of Jacob Marley.
​
As darkness approaches and the clock reaches 5 p.m., townspeople gather along Hay Street for the candlelight procession, followed by fireworks. After the fireworks, the festivities continue until 9 p.m.
