The street and storefronts are at their very best when decorated for the holidays. Many of the merchants will be offering snacks and refreshments. Shop and dine while enjoying the Very Merry Dickens Carolers strolling along the street. The petting zoo is back at Queens Buyway, along with free popcorn for snacking. The kids will be delighted to meet Santa in our inflatable North Pole located at Peg Noonan Park, where there will be hot cocoa and goodies provided by Bear in Boots.
Enjoy live music playing at Vagabond View, Puritan of Cape Cod, The Black Dog, and The Gallery on Main. Some of our local talent will be on display, strolling the street: Turning Pointe Dancers, Soulfege A Cappella Group, and the FHS Band. Meet Moana at Caline For Kids, and next door stop in Cupcake Charlies for complimentary face painting by Mrs. Claus. Keep a look out for the Christmas Parade Characters strolling the street.
The Falmouth EDIC will host caroling and refreshments at the renovated Falmouth Station (bus depot).
The street will be closed this year, so be aware that parking is available at Mullen Hall and Lawrence School, where the trolley will stop, while running from Peg Noonan to Queens Buyway. The Holiday Stroll is a tradition with something for everyone!
