For over 40 years, the Great Dickens Christmas Fair has transported visitors to Victorian London—right here in San Francisco! This cherished Bay Area holiday tradition offers an immersive experience unlike any other. The adventure begins the moment visitors enter the historic Cow Palace’s South Hall, transformed into London’s Victoria Station. A miniature live train welcomes riders of all ages. Some vendors told the crowds are massive—over 8,000 people attended the fair in a single day last Saturday. Steve has been coming to the fair for 12 years. He says it’s not only good for business, but also a lot of fun.
