Victorian Christmas

Nevada City’s 42nd Victorian Christmas helps bring out the holiday spirit. The street fair organized by the Nevada City Chamber transforms downtown Nevada City into a big street fair with over 100 vendors, food trucks, hot mulled wine, holiday music and more.  You can stock up on Christmas gifts, sit by the roaring fire with roasting chestnuts or catch up with old friends.  Make sure to keep an eye out for the walking Christmas tree, Father Christmas and Victorian Christmas Singers.  You can take a ride on the horse-drawn carriage, grab a bite to eat at one of the local food vendors or have a hot toddy from the Nevada City Chamber booth.  If you missed yesterday’s event mark your calendars for Sunday December 15th and 22nd (1:30-6pm) and Wednesday December 11th and 18th (5-9pm).  If you can’t find a parking spot in town, remember you can always park at the Nevada County Government Center and catch the shuttle.  Grass Valley Cornish Christmas continues on Friday evenings till December 20th.  And if you’re a planner, you can mark your calendars for 2020: December 6, 13, 16, 20 and 23.  If you missed the Outside Inn’s blog Giveaway, there’s still plenty of time to enter, happy holidays everyone.
