The 39th Annual Victorian Streetwalk
December 4th
Come Downtown & experience why Saratoga Springs was voted…
#1 Most Festive Christmas Town in the USA!
As dusk falls, downtown Saratoga Springs transforms into an enchanting winter scene for the 39th Annual Victorian Streetwalk.
On the evening of Thursday, December 4, from 6 to 9 p.m., Broadway becomes a pedestrian-only holiday promenade.
∅ PLEASE NOTE: Broadway will be closed to traffic from 5–9 p.m. between Broadway at the Saratoga Springs City Center through Washington Street heading South.
The evening begins with a festive Tree-Lighting Ceremony at 6 p.m. in front of Putnam Market,
preceded by Santa & Mrs. Claus’ arrival with a…
Trolley Parade accompanied by the Saratoga Springs Police Department, Saratoga Springs High School Cheerleaders, The Dance Lab performers and more!
Then the magic unfolds…
Nearly Two Dozen Entertainment Sites along Broadway feature live music, choral performances, dance showcases, carolers in Victorian dress, and wandering street entertainers. Highlights include the Road Soda Pop band (at the Washington Street Stage), Lennox performing at Santa’s Cottage and the Abundant Life Church just outside City Center. Additional acts: Racing City Chorus inside the Adirondack Trust Co., St. Paul Lutheran Church Choir on the City Hall steps, John & Orion Kribs on Celtic Treasures, Tumblin’ Gap Trio and more.
Storefronts become stages too—look for Ballerinas by Saratoga City Ballet in the windows of Caroline and Main, Piper, Petal + Hive, Gilded and Encounter; and a showcase by the Saratoga Springs Youth Ballet at Lex & Cleo.
Other experiences include Photos at Santa’s Cottage beside the tree (cottage open hours listed online), Festive Food and Treats (kettle-corn, hot cocoa, cotton candy), and… the “Festival of Trees” by Catholic Charities of Saratoga, Warren and Washington Counties inside the City Center, Face-Painting, Balloon Artists, Crafts, Photos with Noel the Peppermint Pig at Saratoga Candy Co. and a cheerful Toys for Toga Toy-Drive Table in front of G. Willikers.
