The Dickens Street Faire, organized with pride by the Old Town Elk Grove Foundation is a beloved Elk Grove tradition that marks the start of the holidays. This annual event, held on the first Saturday after Thanksgiving, promises a delightful day for families. Elk Grove Blvd will be bustling, with unique shops, and the additional arts and crafts vendors, commercial vendors, community groups, and food vendors. The center of the activities is the beautiful Old Town Plaza, where the main stage will be providing live music and performers. Also available are professional photo opportunities with Santa, free photos and story time with Mrs. Claus. That's after our Elk Grove Fire Department rescues Santa - an exciting site not to be missed. The sun sets, and the vendors will close up shop. However, stick around for the Christmas Tree Lighting. Santa will flip the switch to illuminate the Old Town's Christmas tree.
