Pottsville's Winterfest is Returning for Second Year in January

After huge attendance, The Pottsville Winterfest will return for a second year in January.

Celebrate the season with the second annual Winterfest event, presented by the historic Greater Pottsville Winter Carnival. This event will feature local craft and food vendors, and tons of family friendly activities.

One of the highlights of the event will be a two hour live ice sculpture demonstration, sponsored by the Schuylkill County Visitors Bureau.

In addition, Winterfest will have a variety of indoor and outdoor vendors, food trucks, a snow activity area for children and families, and a beer garden for adults.

Entertainment will include a performance by SAPPHIRE, sponsored by Riverview Bank, dancers from The Crimson Academy, performers from Spotlight Kidz, and special introductions made by Winter Carnival royalty.

“We were thrilled with the success of the inaugural Winterfest. The level of business and community support has allowed for Winterfest to become an annual event. We have a great partnership with the Greater Pottsville Winter Carnival and can’t wait for Winterfest 2020” said Savas Logothetides, PADCO Executive Director.

The event will take place January 11th, 11AM - 5PM, on South 2nd Street between West Market Street and Mahantongo Street. Potential vendors and volunteers can sign up and find out more information at www.downtownpottsville.com/events.
