Join the canalside for a fun, festive, and family friendly event on the Waterfront!

This year’s celebration, hosted by Star 102.5‘s Sue O’Neil, will feature children’s activities, holiday music, a vendor market, Dickens Carolers, dance performances, giveaways and much more! A Holiday celebration wouldn’t be complete without a visit from Santa Claus and his reindeer and the lighting of our beautiful Holiday Tree – courtesy of KeyBank! As always, the event is free!

Food and beverages (including beer and wine) will also be available for purchase. Some of the food vendors that will be participating include: Duke’s Donuts, Dirty Bird, Lloyd’s, Amy’s Truck, 716 Food and Sport, Venus the Canalside Winter Cafe.
