Bring the entire family and make lifelong memories at Downtown White Bear Lake's Winter Fest. This long-standing holiday attraction takes place the first three Saturdays in December (3rd, 10th & 17th). Enjoy live carolers who will be strolling through the downtown, visit with Santa who will be strolling around and is happy to snap a selfie with the kids, find unique gifts at our specialty shops, enjoy a hearty meal or cocktail at any of our outstanding eateries/pubs, check out the ice sculptures throughout town and don't leave without a merry ride on a horse-drawn trolley (free with food donation).
