Each Friday, Saturday and Sunday from Opening Day to Christmas Eve, historic Main Street in St. Charles becomes a Dickensian winter wonderland with the 'Legends of Christmas' characters, international Santas, Victorian carolers, roasted chestnuts and holiday displays. On Wednesday evenings the 'A Christmas Carol' Stroll turns Main Street into 1840s London. Santa hosts guests at the Historic KATY Train Depot in Frontier Park on Opening Day, Saturdays, Sundays and Christmas Eve (professional photos available).
