Dickens After Dark: Marley's Masquerade

Step into a world of Victorian mystery and holiday magic at Marley’s Masquerade, a hauntingly elegant evening inspired by Jacob Marley from Charles Dickens’ timeless classic A Christmas Carol. Guests 21 and over are invited to don their finest Victorian-inspired attire and ornate masks for a night where mystery and merriment intertwine.

Held once again at The Pavilion on N 2nd Street, the air will fill with the sounds of live music and dancing, luring you onto the floor beneath the flickering candlelight. Throughout the night, marvel at stilt walkers, jugglers, and a magician who will dazzle and delight with feats both wondrous and strange. Seek out the tarot card reader for a glimpse into what the spirits may have in store for you. Commemorate your evening with a visit to our photo booth and a special surprise keepsake.

The evening is sure to blur the line between the living and the spectral, the past and the present—until the final toast rings out and the drone show begins.
