Greetings from Charles Dickens London!
This is the year we celebrate the 30th anniversary of The Great Dickens Christmas Fair!
Our artist elves have therefore been busy, busy, busy.
Check out the fun at:

Humbug, you say? Why yes!! Even Mr. Scrooge will have a twinkle in his eye when he sees some of this swag.
You will find terrific items with three different logos that you can choose from:
Many different clothing varieties and sizes of long sleeve, short sleeve, baseball, tank tops, hoodies and more.....
Bumper stickers to help advertise with the new 30th annual information! (everyone should have one)
Humbug Mugs for the scrooge in your life
Teddy bears, buttons, trivets, journals, there is even a T-shirt for the canine in your world.
Check it out and be the first to pick up Fair memorabilia not available at the Fair merchandise store!
Christmas has indeed come early this year for the Cow Palace as well!
It has been saved from greedy developers that would make even our dear Uncle Scrooge wag his finger, (Bah, Humbug!). We are delighted to report that the Cow Palace will continue to be the home of the Great Dickens Christmas Fair and will undoubtedly play host to many new creative wonders and memory-making gatherings for decades to come!
Support the Fair by encouraging co-workers, friends and acquaintances to visit dickensfair.com. We will notify you when the ticket page is ready to take orders.
