About this event
WinterFest Columbus brings a European-style holiday village to downtown's Bicentennial Park along the Scioto Mile riverfront. The festive setup typically includes an ice skating rink, holiday lights, seasonal food and drink, rides, and vendor huts selling gifts and treats. It's a cheerful winter gathering spot for families and couples during the holiday season. Entry to the festival grounds is free, while ice skating and rides are individually ticketed. Bundle up and enjoy a magical downtown evening among the lights. (Confirm 2026 opening dates on the event page before you go.)
