Downtown Guthrie turns into an old-fashioned Chrstmas town during its annual Territorial Christmas Celebration and you don't want to miss it.

On December 9 and 16 attend the "Victorian Walk Evenings" celebration from 5-9 p.m. Visitors can walk the streets and enjoy live carolers dressed in early-1900s costumes.

And enjoy decorated store windows with live actors.

You'll get to see what life was like in Guthrie during the Territorial Days. Santa and Mrs. Clause will be greeting you and walking the streets of downtown Guthrie.

The town is transformed into a magical place filled with holiday decor and mesmerizing lights. You'll feel like you stepped back in time where life was a bit simpler.

Costumed characters stroll along the streets and make the whole experience an authentic one. You can even buy peanuts from peanut vendors just like they used to during Territorial times.

On December 9 attend the Historic Homes tour where you'll see Guthrie's finest homes, churches and the Carnegie Library dressed for the season and hear stories of their earlier days.

There's nothing like this event in Oklahoma, so step back in time and enjoy life as it was in Christmas's past.

Have you ever attended the Victorian walk in Guthrie? If so, did you enjoy it?

There are so many fabulous Christmas activities in Oklahoma. What are some of your favorite? One of my favorites is visiting the Rhema Christmas Lights in Broken Arrow. Find more information about this spectacular Christmas lights display here.
