Over one hundred displays set to holiday music are lighted from 5:30 pm to 9:30 pm nightly. Also, 4'X8' dickens/historic themed christmas cards painted by local professional artists and students are displayed throughout the town square. A park pavillion is transformed into a gingerbread house where hot chocolate is served by a warm fireplace. The pavillion also houses a gingerbread house building contest. Many activities take place over the duration of the festival including: ice carving, chestnut roasting, caroling, horse and carriage rides and a parade are just part of the festival events.
