Come Visit Downtown McKinney November 28, 29 & 30
for the 28th annual Dickens of a Christmas festival!
Downtown McKinney’s premier festival, the 28th annual Dickens of a Christmas, is right around the corner. An old fashioned, Victorian atmosphere with horse drawn carriages, strolling carolers, visits with Santa Claus, the Christmas tree lighting and activities for all ages. Come and enjoy Christmas music, Dicken's era dress, food and children’s activities provided by local not-for-profit organizations.
Center stage this year is our snow tubing hill. Bring your family and enjoy the weekend tubing, visiting the many great shops and restaurants on the historic square, and entertainment. It's the perfect start to the holiday season.
Santa Claus always enjoys the Dickens festival and coming in person! He will be available to see your children to hear there requests and for picture taking all three days during his vacation from the North Pole. Catch him at the MPAC building in the center of McKinney square.
Children will also have an opportunity to write letters to Santa to be sure Santa won’t forget the wish list!
It all starts on the 28th with the tree lighting ceremony, a message from our Mayor, the lighting of the tree and candlelight shopping until 8:00 p.m
Periodically during the month of December, the shops in downtown McKinney will stay open for extended hours so that customers have a chance to finish all of that holiday shopping in one place with over 100 boutiques, art galleries, bookstores, apparel, gifts and exquisite antique stores. Visitors can find unique and special gifts that they won’t find anywhere else. This magical event is free to the public. CART will provide free shuttle service from First Baptist Church of McKinney to the Historic Downtown.
