Downtown Pensacola presents
 | | Winterfest trolley tours begin Nov. 24. |
| The annual Winterfest Celebration is ongoing in Downtown Pensacola! Trolley tours take revelers to a series of interactive performances along a 2.5 mile route in the idyllic small town setting encompassing a historic residential neighborhood and downtown storefronts along Palafox Place.
The area comes to life with entertainment provided by residents and business owners and beautiful downtown Pensacola becomes a stage for Winterfest during the holiday season. Trolley tours run through
Trolleys act as theaters taking passengers to performances at eleven locations where dozens of local residents bring to life favorite characters of the season.
The overall theme of Winterfest deals with holiday subjects celebrated in our popular cultural heritage, commonly expressed in literature, songs, movies and shared traditions. The focus for the theme is taken from the Frank Capra movie, "It's a Wonderful Life" which will be staged as a movie set on the porch of a Victorian home in Pensacola's Historic Village. Other holiday classics, such as "The Grinch" will be reenacted in similar fashion using historic buildings of the period as backdrops for the action. Cartoon characters are included in the holiday fun. Frosty and Rudolph board each trolley and lead the passengers in song.
A flurry of snowflakes - Florida snow, that is - surrounds you at the end of the tour as you listen to the sounds of lively choral singing from some of Pensacola's most acclaimed gospel choirs.
