Dickens Village Festival 2024
Garrison’s Dickens Village Festival will delight and entertain families from across North Dakota, eastern Montana and southern Canada at the annual Dickens Festival.
The event turns a community of 1,500 into a quaint Victorian town from the era of Charles Dickens’. Beginning Thanksgiving week, the Dickens Village Festival runs three consecutive Fridays and Saturdays.
Live entertainment, specialty events including the Fruticake Toss, and Piccadilly Square Craft Vendor Show, street food vendors, street urchins and street carolers, a lighted Main Street parade at dusk and a theater production of “A Christmas Carol” are highlights of this festival that continues to increase in popularity. Ride on an authentic English double decker bus or enjoy a carriage ride. Each day offers entertainment of everything from top-drawer vocalists to tribute artists and comedy. Garrison merchants also join in the fun as employees dress up in their favorite Victorian garb to serve customers.
As the official Christmas Capitol of North Dakota, Garrison and its Dickens Village Festival are a must for anyone who wants to turn the holiday season into a special experience year after year.
