Things To Do in the St. George, Utah area: Dickens' Christmas Festival / Dixie Center
Come to witness and relive the Charles Dickens era in 19th Century London! You are able to experience it firsthand at the Dickens' Christmas Festival at the Dixie Center. Make your way through tapered streets reminiscent of that time, meet the shop owners, peruse the goods and be sure to visit the "real" Father Christmas!
Dip your wick! Make a candle as they did back in the day by taking a wick, and dip it again and again in the warm wax and eventually a candle emerges! This is great fun for wee ones!
Try the Toffee Covered Almonds. What a warm and tasty treat. Be careful, they are addictive!
Eat authentic fish and chips from a local vendor in the dining area as you sit and enjoy the free entertainment!
Meet Queen Victoria in all her finery and jewels. All vendors and participants are in Olde English clothing reminiscent of that time.
Have your picture taken with the "real" Father Christmas. I will agree that he is the "real" deal as he is jolly and filled with Holiday cheer and Christmas joy!
The entertainment is top notch with mini productions such as: "Oliver Twist" and "Scrooge". And Tiny Tim will be there! You'll be sure to get the Christmas spirit while singing along with the charming cast as they dance and belt out tunes all through the day and into the evening!
