Stratford Winterfest taking place this weekend

A winter tradition is back for another year in Stratford.

Stratford Winterfest takes place from Friday until Sunday with a full slate of events for all ages with this year’s theme “Keep Calm and Freeze On.”

Winterfest began in 1998 as a single-day event and has expanded each year to its current format.

Carys Wyn Hughes is one of the organizers of the event and she says it couldn’t take place without the support of the City of Stratford.

“A huge supporter in every way, not only do they support us to sponsor this event but they also do so many other things to help us out.”

The city contributes $18,500 to the event which is conditional on matching funds from the community.
