To be held from November 28th to January 2nd, this second annual Festival has added some features:

• Seniors Night hosted by the Ramada Hotel
• Downtown Poinsettia Parade

The City of Prince George, Initiatives Prince George and Downtown Prince George are working together on the project which last year attracted almost 6,000 vehicles, carrying 23,000 passengers.
"The organizing committee has been busy working to create a variety of fun, family activities that will complement the many holiday events already taking place in our city," said Jill Moore, Downtown Prince George Executive Director and chair of the organizing committee. "In particular, we want to thank our sponsors who see this event as a celebration of our community and a great step toward turning our downtown into an inviting, exciting place to bring the family."
