For one Sunday in December, the Rensselaer County Regional Chamber turns the streets of historic downtown Troy into a Victorian-era holiday village, with strollers in top hats and bustles mixing with everyday shoppers.
The festival spreads holiday entertainment, street performers, music, family activities, food and shop specials from River Street up toward 6th Avenue. Costumes are optional, but kids who dress up in Victorian style fit right in.
Parent tip: Several downtown streets close to cars, so park in a City of Troy garage or a Russell Sage College lot, and check VictorianStroll.com for the 2026 map before you go.

The Van Rensselaer Garden Club fills the rooms of the Hart Cluett Museum’s 1827 Federal-style mansion with holiday displays made from fresh greens, flowers and natural materials, the tradition the Victorian Stroll grew out of.
Kids can hunt through the themed rooms, and the popular Dickens Village exhibit is back along with the museum holiday gift shop in the Carr Building.
Parent tip: Children 16 and under get in free, so the Greens Show pairs perfectly with the Stroll on Sunday, December 6.

A story for the drive home
A morning with Santa or an evening of holiday stories tends to end the same way: tired kids, a long drive and one more book before bed. Our picture book follows Rally the corgi on his first train ride to see his grand-paw-rents, and every page is painted by hand. If your family is spending December missing someone, it was written for that too. For the car, print our free corgi and train coloring pages.
A bedtime story after seeing SantaRally Takes the Train is a five-minute rhyming picture book about a corgi’s first ride on a California train, hand-painted in watercolor. $16.99 on Amazon, ages 0 to 8.
