Annual Events
The Historic Richmond Depot District is proud to host several free, family-friendly events each year for our community.
Old-Fashioned Christmas Festival
December 1, 8, 15 and 22, 2009
5-9pm
Christmas time is a special time of year in the Historic Richmond Depot District. During this magical season our neighborhood comes alive with attractions and events for young and old alike.
You will feel the spirit of the season as you stroll through our historic neighborhood aglow with twinkling lights and luminaries. Voices of children singing Christmas carols will evoke your memories of Christmas past.
Enjoy a steaming cup of hot apple cider and delicious Christmas cookies while you take a ride on our Horse-Drawn Carriage and Wagon. Then, take an exciting trip on an Old Fashioned English Double-Decker Bus!
Watch your children’s excitement when they see a favorite attraction, Children’s Train Rides on the Christmas Express in the Winter Wonderland room at The Richmond Furniture Gallery. This room also features one of the world’s largest Christmas Murals and a Fantasyland Train Display. The display features several trains that run around an old fashioned Richmond, Indiana landscape. After the trains, your children (and those of you young at heart) can have your picture taken with Santa Claus!
Live bands will also be performing at several of the neighborhood shops and restaurants for your listening enjoyment.
Please join us on Tuesday evenings for food, fun and festivities that your entire family will enjoy. Admission and parking is free!
