Now in its sixth decade, the Annual FDA Holiday House Tour features homes that capture the neighborhood’s architectural cohesiveness, yet its spectacular distinctiveness, that exists nowhere else in the United States. Come see what makes the Fan uniquely Richmond!

This much-loved, annual tradition is expected to bring more than 1500 visitors to the historic Fan District, which is the largest intact Victorian district in the country. Ticket holders will be able to tour nine spectacular and festively decorated properties, while enjoying the vibrant neighborhood and its unique architectural character.

The annual Holiday House Tour raises funds to support the FDA’s dedication to the preservation, restoration, and betterment of the community. Last year’s record-breaking tally allowed the FDA to award $40,000 to support schools, neighborhood parks and streetscapes, and organizations that serve those in need in the Fan, and in the city Richmond.
