Dickens on The Strand

Hear ye, hear ye, and prepare to step back in time for an unforgettable seasonal tradition! Dickens on The Strand brilliantly transforms downtown Galveston into a magical 19th-century Victorian London wonderland for three spectacular days. Families and festival-goers will marvel at strolling carolers, lively roaming entertainers, daily parades, and four stages packed with non-stop entertainment. Guests can easily explore costumed vendors peddling their authentic wares from street stalls and rolling carts filled with holiday foods, unique crafts, and charming gifts. Dress up in your absolute finest Victorian attire to join the spirited celebrations, including the crowd-favorite Whimsical Whisker Revue, the facial hair contest, and the hilarious Victorian bed races, making this a truly jolly way to launch your holiday season.
