Step back in time at Dickens of a Christmas, taking place December 10-11, 2022, in downtown Franklin.

The Victorian-themed outdoor street festival called Dickens of a Christmas recreates the time of Charles Dickens using historic downtown Franklin’s charming architecture as the backdrop.

At the festival, you will find street musicians, and the best part- Dicken’s characters will fill the streets. You can meet Jacob Marley, Ebenezer Scrooge, Tiny Tim, and the rest of the Cratchit family from A Christmas Carol. And of course, Santa will be there.

Other things to expect:

  • Arts & Crafts Vendors
  • Food & Beverage Vendors
  • Main Stage Entertainment
  • KidZone
  • Victorian Village with Holiday Dancers, Characters and Carolers
  • Acoustic Stage presented by Lipscomb University
  • Whiskey Lounge
