Winterfest is only ONE WEEK away!
Market Square is about to come alive with the spirit of winter — and you’re invited to step into the holiday season with us.
Join us on Saturday, November 22nd from 4–8 PM as we work together with the Town of Carleton Place and Carleton Place Tourism to present Winterfest 2025 at the Market Square Pavilion and throughout our Downtown District. This free, family-friendly celebration is your kickoff to a magical holiday season.
Here’s what’s in store:
The popular Night Market returns with local vendors, sidewalk specials, seasonal treats, and one-of-a-kind gift ideas from downtown businesses open late to explore.
Catch an incredible lineup at the Market Square Pavilion:
• Luv2Groove | 4:15–5:00 PM
• Busker Shows | 5:00–6:00 PM
• The Small Town Socials | 6:00–8:00 PM
Enjoy complimentary horse-drawn wagon rides through the decorated downtown core, and keep an eye out for The Grinch, who will be roaming with tricks and treats.
Warm up at the Rona warming station, and enjoy food and snack vendors on site throughout the evening. Take a photo with the Cavanagh Construction Truck all decked out for the holidays.
Mark your calendars, gather your friends and family, and get ready to welcome winter in Carleton Place.
