Brrr, the chilly weather has arrived, bringing with it a friendly reminder to mark your calendars for the 2024 Winter Solstice Festival

Come join in our local celebration of the shortest day of the year, regaining daylight and supporting the local businesses of the Golden Heart City.

This year we have some spectacular Solstice Fireworks, festive reindeer + elf sightings, and a Moose on the Loose local business scavenger hunt with tons of prizes!

Don't forget to take a stroll through the enchanting Winter Lights Walk, hosted by FNSB Parks & Recreation, and have a blast exploring the Holiday Bazaar hosted by the Morris Thompson Cultural and Visitors Center.

Don't let the cold catch you off guard, grab your friends and join us for some solstice fun this December!
