🎄 REMEMBER THE MAGIC OF CHRISTMAS WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG?

The excitement of those last few days before Christmas. The twinkling lights, the decorations, the presents waiting beneath the tree, and that wonderful feeling of anticipation.

Christmas has a way of bringing back some of our happiest memories. And sometimes, it's lovely to recapture a little of that magic.

This December, Rochester History Guided Tours is bringing a rather special Christmas experience to historic Rochester.

A CHRISTMAS EVENING WITH MR DICKENS

On Tuesday 22nd December, just three days before Christmas, guests are invited to step away from the festive rush and enjoy an evening of traditional Christmas storytelling, warm hospitality and a little seasonal indulgence.

The evening begins with a welcoming glass of Prosecco or mulled w**e, accompanied by a festive mince pie, before guests settle down for a performance by Ollie Dickens, the great-great-great-grandson of Charles Dickens.

Ollie will bring to life The Seven Poor Travellers, a charming Christmas story with a very special connection to Rochester. Remarkably, this will be the first time a member of the Dickens family has performed the story in the town where it is set.

He'll also share some fascinating stories passed down through the Dickens family, revealing how his famous ancestor celebrated Christmas and what he got up to during the festive season!

Every guest will receive a specially produced commemorative booklet containing The Seven Poor Travellers as a keepsake of the evening.

It's a lovely opportunity to enjoy something a little different in the days leading up to Christmas, whether you're treating yourself or sharing the experience with someone special.

🎄 Tuesday 22nd December 2026
📍 Rochester Baptist Church, Rochester
🥂 Doors open at 7pm | Performance begins at 7.45pm

An evening of Christmas warmth, nostalgia and storytelling in the heart of historic Rochester, brought to you by Rochester History Guided Tours.
