Biltmore Village Dickens Festival

Dickens Christmas in the Village returns to Historic Biltmore Village this December as part of It’s A Wonderful Village! Celebrating the history, culture, arts, and architectural treasures for which the Village has become renowned, the Dickens Christmas event is scheduled for Saturday, December 6, and Sunday, December 7, 2025. However, there will be holiday entertainment every Saturday (11 AM-3 PM) from November 29 through December 31, 2025!

For the last 30+ years, this annual holiday event has been delighting children of all ages and bringing the spirit of the holiday season to bear in Historic Biltmore Village. In the spirit of caroling and sharing holiday cheer, over two dozen roving Dickens-themed acts will be performed throughout Historic Biltmore Village, including dance groups, instrumental acts, bubble makers, mimes, jugglers, and more. Visitors are encouraged to complete their holiday shopping and dine in seasonal splendor.

This holiday event is guaranteed to warm your heart and get you into the holiday spirit!
