Honesdale’s shops offer a large variety of great products including beautiful gifts, clothing and footwear for young and old, electronics and appliances, health care products, jewelry, bridal fashions and more. Our merchants are famous for their knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful service.
The Fred Miller Pavilion on Honesdale’s historic Main Street will be alive with holiday music on both days. Plan to stop and enjoy DJ Tom Emanski on Friday from Noon to 5:00 p.m. and Saturday, from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Our holiday music is sponsored by GHP member RE/MAX WAYNE and Meagher Insurance Agency.
Friday, November 23 will also feature Honesdale’s Annual Santa Parade. The parade, which kicks off at 6:00 p.m., starts at Main and Fourth Streets, proceeds up Main Street, turns right on tenth Street, and proceeds to Honesdale’s Central Park. Activities in Central Park immediately after the parade and co-sponsored by our friends at 95.3 DNH & Classic Hits 105.3, will include the lighting of the Star on Irving Cliff, the lighting of the Christmas Tree in the park and Holiday Music, all under Santa’s twinkling eyes. And there will be time for the children to visit with Santa after the festivities. Preceding the parade, enjoy the joyful sounds of the Honesdale High School Chamber Choir as they stroll Main Street.
On Saturday, November 24, beautifully clad Victorian strollers will promenade downtown and craft vendors will dot Main Street near the pavilion. Make sure to look for Santa and his buddies as you stroll the streets.. They may have a special treat for that good little boy or girl.
The Greater Honesdale Partnership will also be offering a FREE holiday shopper’s trolley from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturday. This free trolley will not only offer shoppers and visitors the chance to leave their car parked in one location throughout the day, but will offer a historic tour of the downtown area for their enjoyment. Our holiday shopper’s trolley is proudly sponsored by Beck, Gogolski, Poska & Co., Dirlam Bros. Lumber Co., and Grimm Construction.
Also on Saturday, enjoy the St. Nicholas Faire at Grace Epsicopal Church, 827 Church Street and while there, stop in at the Stourbridge Model Railroad Club. They will be hosting an Open House in the Grace Episcopal Parish Hall located from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The Model Railroad Club has created a large HO gauge railroad display that depicts the mythical town of Wayne. Take a step back into time as you enjoy watching this beautiful recreation.
The Wayne County Historical Society Museum, located at 810 Main Street, right in the center of town, features a full-scale replica of the famous Stourbridge Lion – the first locomotive to run on a track in America.
