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. During this magical event, you’ll find all sorts of gift-giving ideas that you won’t find elsewhere. Antiques abound at Foster’s “E” Street Gallery. Find tasty treats at Maria Mitrione’s Italian Market and one-of-a-kind gifts at Good Life Emporium. Little Sheba’s, Joe’s Pizza, and Maria Mitrione’s Italian Market will be serving up great food all night so you won’t go home hungry.
New attractions are added each year!
Please join us on Tuesday evenings for food, fun and festivities that your entire family will enjoy. Admission and parking is free!
