The Jack Frost Winterfest, presented by Island Coastal, is set to return to Charlottet­own for four days, Feb. 15-18.

The festival will bring back perennial favourites and include exciting, new features for families.

The Outdoor Snow Kingdom will return to the Charlottet­own Event Grounds with an abundance of snow- and ice-inspired fun, food vendors and more.

The nearby Eastlink Centre will play host to a lineup of highlyanti­cipated children’s entertaine­rs and an indoor playland filled with bouncies and inflatable­s.

Frosty Night, featuring live outdoor entertainm­ent and fireworks in Downtown Charlottet­own, will also be back by popular demand.

This year, the Outdoor Kingdom will remain open on Monday, Feb. 18, for Family Day, providing families an extra day to experience the joy and wonder of ice slides, ice sculpting and much more.

This year’s host hotels are ready to welcome festival-goers with two- or three-night packages that include VIP access to the event grounds.

Packages for a family of four start at $356 plus tax for two nights and $474 plus tax for three nights.

Also new for 2019, Discover Charlottet­own will be extending a compliment­ary Confederat­ion Bridge Pass to the first 75 people that purchase three-night hotel packages.

The full lineup of live entertainm­ent and programmin­g for Jack Frost will be announced in early November.
