In 2025, Dickens of a Christmas attracted 120,000 people. This festival recreates the time of Charles Dickens using historic downtown Franklin’s charming architecture as the backdrop. A variety of musicians, dancers and Dickens characters will fill the streets. Expect to see and interact with the nefarious Fagin from Oliver Twist; Jacob Marley, Ebenezer Scrooge, Tiny Tim and the rest of the Cratchit family from A Christmas Carol; and of course, a Victorian Father and Mother Christmas with treats for children. The festival is produced by the Heritage Foundation of Williamson County.Featuring:150+ Arts & Crafts Vendors30+ Food & Beverage VendorsMain Stage EntertainmentKidZoneVictorian Village with Holiday Dancers, Characters and CarolersAcoustic StageBuskers Corner Whiskey LoungeBeer TentHow to Apply:Applications are only accepted through Eventeny.
