Asheville Holiday Event: Dickens Festival in Biltmore Village
November 30 - December 2 Biltmore Village Dickens Festival
Historic Biltmore Village transforms itself into a quaint Victorian village
with entertainment for every age and interest. The main stage will be filled continuously with musicians, choral groups, singers, dancers and
the Montford Park Players.
This year the Festival will feature more than 300 performers who, after their stage segments, will rove throughout the Village entertaining on the streets and in the shops and restaurants. Friday and Saturday evenings will feature main stage concerts for the entire family. As dusk turns into evening, more than 250,000 white lights outlining the historic Village buildings will combine with the streetlights to enhance the ambiance. Shops stay open evenings until 7 PM with many of the shopkeepers dressed in Victorian-era garb.
In addition, there will be horse-drawn rides through the tree-lined Village streets all day Saturday and Sunday. Chestnuts roasted on an open fire by chestnut roaster Sakshi Gentenbein will be available next to the main stage.
