It’s Beginning to Look a lot like Christmas at the Glacier!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas at the Glacier!

Bring your list and check it twice, because it’s beginning to look a lot like… Christmas at the Glacier, a festival of craft and art! The largest event of its type in the Province has become the kick-off to the gift shopping season.

When the idea was formed, folks said, “A Christmas craft show before Halloween? That’ll never work.” But it certainly has. From its beginnings in 1993 when the Glacier arena was barely complete, to the present day with almost 200 vendors from across Canada, it’s a shopping extravaganza.

This year we’ve pulled out all the stops once again, to get you in the festive mood. There are many new vendors, and of course, all your favourites from Newfoundland and Labrador, the Maritimes and beyond are back. And we can’t let this year go by without a special mention and huge thanks to the three vendors who haven’t missed a year: Downhome Magazine, our major show sponsor since the first year in 1993, Creative World from Clarenville and Butler Framing and Gallery in Mount Pearl.

Visitors from the early days in the 90’s tell us they mark their calendars and now bring their own children and grandchildren. Many make the show an annual tradition and day out with family and friends. Some even travel across Newfoundland to visit – simply amazing in this Internet and online shopping age!

One lady commented on Facebook that her best friend travels from Calgary every year.

Other comments include:

“Looking forward to the show, I’m so excited and haven’t missed one yet. Gets me into the Christmas spirit!”
“Love it all, especially the music and the new vendors.”
“Great to support local talented craftspeople.”
“My baby’s first Christmas at the Glacier! Can’t wait.”

“I love to shop and browse through all the beautiful things at Christmas at the Glacier. It’s a magical experience!”

Don’t miss this 32nd annual show. The Glacier will be decorated, Christmas music will be playing, and it’ll be filled to the rafters with unique gifts for yourself, your home and all your loved ones. Plus of course, the fudge, popcorn, chocolates and other tasty treats to satisfy those sugar cravings!
Don’t forget your list, and check it twice to make this a Christmas they’ll never forget. For details visit: www.christmasattheglacier.com and follow our Facebook and Instagram pages for up-to-the-minute news. The show runs from Wednesday October 23rd at 5pm through Sunday, October 27th, closing at 5pm.

CGI Entertainment sends out a huge heartfelt thank you to visitors and vendors alike for your support all these years. So very much appreciated.

See you at the show!
