ALL THE CHRISTMAS FEELS DOWNTOWN
Now through December 23, 2021
Cozy in front of a fire with a cup a ho-cho and your favourite human. Gaze on twinkling lights strewn across streets and door frames. Watch A Christmas Carol for the bazillionth time. Hear the scraping of ice beneath your feet as you glide on the ice. These are just SOME of the Christmas Feels you can find downtown this holiday season!

Santa sightings - Skating, selfies and photo ops, there is plenty of opportunity to see Santa and his elves this holiday season!
Christmas carols and concerts - Whether you have the voice of an angel or are better off doing private concerts to yourself in your car, Christmas music is a wonderful way to get into the holiday spirit!
Screen and stage - For some, the spirit of Christmas starts with a good story! Catch an ol’ traditional tale or start that season with a new narrative.
Holiday Shopping - You’ve made your list and you’ve checked it twice! Now it’s time to get gifts for those that have been a little naughty and extra nice!
Something a little different - If you are looking to start a new tradition or check out something new this holiday season, this blog is for you!
