PALMERSTON – The Town of Minto, Minto Fire, and All Aboard Palmerston, want to light up the sky and bring the fun with a PRE-New Year’s Eve event, Fire and Ice, held on Dec. 29, 2024. Organizers wish to emphasize that the date has changed from previous years and will be on the Sunday evening before New Year’s Eve.
The event will be held at the Palmerston Arena from 6 p.m. - 8 p.m. on Dec. 29, 2024 and is set to include a full slate of activities, related to the event’s theme.
Inside the Arena, visitors can enjoy the best parts of the winter season with free public skating, cozy up with hot chocolate, treats, and food by local community groups. Kids can also line up for free glitter tattoos and face painting and enjoy the spectacular talents of the Magic Man.
Outside, families can warm up around outdoor firepits, watch a blacksmithing demonstration, and enjoy a meal from Berlin 95 Food Truck. New this year, a dazzling Fire Show will be held outside at 7:30 p.m. (pending weather). At 8 p.m everyone can gather outside for a huge fireworks display.
“2024 has been a busy and exciting year in Minto and we can’t wait to celebrate with our community,” says Marketing and Community Development Coordinator, Erin Raftis. “The event wouldn’t be possible without the support of our amazing event sponsor, Blessings to You Centre, as well as the staff and crew at the Town of Minto and the Minto Fire Department.”
