Downtown at Dusk
The holidays are here! We’re excited to invite you to our Downtown at Dusk window lighting to brighten the downtown north core. All the businesses will have festive offerings to get you in the holiday spirit.
Enjoy carollers, Christmas music, and hot chocolate while exploring the downtown area. Prime gelato will be unveiling a holiday flavour, Foundry is offering free coffee (perfect for you to add a shot of Baileys to..) and shops are open until 10pm.
Already attending the Bay Algoma tree lighting? It ends at 8pm and we’re only minutes away! You can head over after and take advantage of some late night shopping.
