Winterfest Hartford will open on Friday, November 29, for free ice skating, free skate rentals, free learn-to-skate classes, and more!
It costs $300,000 to bring the magic of Winterfest Hartford to our capital city each year. We’re already fundraising for next year - can you help us make this holiday tradition happen?
