Dickens on the Square This Friday and Saturday in Macomb

Share

The 29th Annual Dickens on the Square will take place this Friday and Saturday in Downtown Macomb. City of Macomb Marketing Downtown Development Director Savanah Ballard highlights the Victorian style Christmas two day event:

“Dickens on the Square is a really unique twist on the Christmas holiday season, bringing in an old 1800s Victorian style Christmas experience. We do that by being able to bring in some old Victorian style characters. Santa will actually be arriving on our Amtrak train on Friday night. He will be arriving at 6:17 pm and then he will be at his cabin for the rest of the evening. We will also have horse drawn trolley rides, we will have a reindeer on Friday night, carriage rides Saturday morning, and we will have living windows which are a really cool attraction, as well as dining and shopping experiences for the holidays.”
