You can experience the unusual array of outdoor games at Door County’s first festival of 2025 in Fish Creek this weekend.  With seasonal temperatures forecasted, the 37th annual Winterfest is expected to draw huge crowds with heated tents overlooking the frozen waters of Green Bay at Clark Park. 

The top attractions of the weekend include a bike toss, ice bowling, a cherry pit spit contest, Stumpf fiddling, a Snowflake cake bake, live music, fireworks, and a fruit loop run. The festival also incorporates local activities like All Things Chocolate at the Old Town Hall and the Candlelight Ski-Hike at Peninsula State Park.
