Dickens Festival on Saturday

This Saturday the streets of Stadium will be taken over for the annual Dickens Festival.

Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Be it decreed that all lords, ladies and children shall come and celebrate the 4th Annual Dickens Festival at Stadium, a holiday festival, where Bobbies, Beefeaters and the Queen herself will be on hand to recreate the Victorian London of Charles Dickens. Characters from Dickens novels walk the street. Food and entertainment fill the area with sights and smells that take you back to another era. The festival is named after Charles Dickens whose concern for the poor is reflected in novels about their plight. His holiday classic, A Christmas Carol, is loved by many. In keeping with the mission, the festival plans to raise money for the “New Phoebe House”.

This is always a fun event with the costumes and tons of activities for all ages. Pick up a schedule of events at any Stadium business.
