The Great Dickens Christmas Fair is an immersive, family-friendly holiday exposition that recreates Victorian London with costumed performers, period shops, taverns, street performers, live music and staged entertainment. It takes place at the Cow Palace in Daly City as a large indoor seasonal marketplace and theatrical experience that attracts visitors from across the Bay Area. The fair is notable for its detailed historical sets and interactive performances, and for being one of the country’s longest-running Dickens-themed holiday events.
