After the great success of its first annual holiday themed event along the Naramata Bench, the community can get ready for its return.

Last year, Joel and Linda Chamaschuk, co-owners of Chain Reaction Winery, reached out to their neighbouring businesses to see if there was interest in hosting a special weekend, creating the first annual Naramata Bench Winterfest.

All businesses on the Naramata Bench are invited to join in, not just the wineries.

Winterfest runs on Nov. 22 from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. and Nov. 23 from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Winery, cidery, distillery and brewery tastings will all be taking place, set against a backdrop of Christmas lights and decorations.

Some locations will be hosting fire pits, seasonal snacks, and special holiday shopping events.

No tickets or reservations required.
