It’s not safe to celebrate the annual Downtown Winterfest this year so Downtown Prince George has come up with some suggestions on how to celebrate the city's core safely this month.

Take a trip to a market, including the Prince George Farmers' Market on Third Avenue or the Butler's Market on Fourth Avenue.

Discover the unique dining experiences including craft breweries, pubs, family dining or a cafe or lounge style establishment and there's high end options as well.

There's plenty of artistic and cultural expression to see at Two Rivers Gallery with many downtown boutiques offering northern artists wares for sale.

There are unique shops and boutiques that offer clothing, home decor, furniture and appliances, art, giftware, craft supplies, eye wear, jewelry, sports equipment, groceries and fresh flowers.

During the pandemic it's especially important to include self-care in your routine and there's plenty of personal care and beauty businesses to take care of all your needs downtown.

For family fun, there's escape gaming, bowling and billiards, martial arts, a great book store with lots of books from local authors or take an historic walk through the streets of downtown.

And for the more practical needs of every household there are many professionals offering their services downtown Prince George including those that deal with finances, legal issues, risk management, education, marketing, healthcare and support services.

There is a Downtown Winterfest contest everyone is welcome to enter. While enjoying downtown and supporting the businesses find snowflakes or the Downtown Winter hashtag in the windows of participating businesses and take a selfie in front of five of those businesses, tag Downtown PG on Facebook or Instagram before Feb. 14 and enter to win prizes worth $500, $250 and $100 worth of gift certificates to spend at downtown businesses.
