Claremore’s historic downtown will glow with holiday cheer as Dickens on the Boulevard returns November 20–21. This two-night celebration has become a treasured tradition for families across Rogers County, offering a nostalgic Victorian Christmas experience filled with music, laughter, and community spirit.

Visitors can stroll through beautifully decorated streets, meet costumed characters, enjoy carriage rides, and watch live reenactments that bring Claremore’s early history to life. Children and adults alike will love the Victorian Street Dance and the Living Window Displays. Both nights will also offer a Ghosts of Christmas Past Tour. This guided tour will take you through some of the historic downtown buildings and share the fascinating history. Tickets are required for the tour and can be purchased at www.ClaremoreMS.org

Local merchants will offer extended shopping hours, holiday treats, and special promotions, making it easy to find unique gifts while supporting Claremore’s small businesses.

“We are excited to present the 31st annual Dickens on the Boulevard. Our downtown community loves sharing the magic and joy of the season with visitors to Claremore.” says Mary Ann White, Claremore Main Street President.

The event is free to attend and there is no cost for parking. Festivities begin at 6 p.m. each evening.
