A holiday vendor market and business event is returning to downtown Wallaceburg with a new name.

The inaugural Frost Fest will take place on Thursday from 4 p.m. until 9 p.m., featuring vendors on James Street, horse and carriage rides, a visit from Santa, a window painting contest, and a lighting ceremony will also take place at Civic Park.

Downtown businesses will also open their doors to offer raffles, food drinks and more.

The event is organized by the Downtown Wallaceburg BIA in partnership with the River of Lights and Farmer’s Market committees.
