Organisers of Dundee Winterfest have confirmed dates and attractions for the 2022 event – as the festival makes its return following a successful first year.

The Christmas-themed event debuted in Slessor Gardens last year.

It featured stalls, fairground rides and an ice rink, and provided the city with an economic boost worth £2.6 million.

Winterfest also created 84 temporary jobs and attracted more than 260,000 visitors.

Now, M&N Events – which runs the event – is ramping up its arrangements for this year.

Winterfest will once again be held at Slessor Gardens, running from Friday November 25 to Sunday January 1 – with the start date slightly later than initially announced.

The ice rink, big wheel and bar – featuring live singers and entertainment – are all set to make a return, along with a special children’s area and 22 Christmas huts where visitors can buy food and gifts.

A statement on the Winterfest Facebook page said: “We can’t wait to welcome you all back for Winterfest 2022, Friday November 25 2022-Sunday January 1 2023.

“Winterfest returns bigger and better: more craft stalls, more food stalls, more rides.”

Entry to the overall site is free but some attractions cost with tickets now on sale online.

Meanwhile traders have already been invited to apply to sell their goods at this year’s event.

Concerns were raised last year that the prices traders were being charged to join the event were too high.
