Organized by the Galveston Historical Foundation, this annual holiday festival blends Victorian architecture, costumed revelers, and lively entertainment to honor both Dickens's legacy and the city’s rich history. From parades and carolers to unique events like bed races and beard contests, it’s a magical celebration of Christmas and community spirit.
