Holiday lovers can start the season with a magical experience at the Polar Winter Festival.

The Polar Winter Festival is held at Toronto’s Exhibition Grounds. Last year, the experience was a drive-through, but guests can now walk around and explore this year.

The winter festival offers guests a multitude of holiday activities to enjoy, such as the [Christmas Market](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elora-christmas-market), Polar Carousel, carnival games, Holidaze Tunnel, Polar Starlight Rail, [Santa Selfie station](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/santa-suite), and a 25 foot Tree of Enchantment, to name a few.

[Toys for Tots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toys-r-us-asia) teamed up with the Polar Winter Festival this year, and visitors are invited to bring donations when they visit on Saturdays and Sundays to support the charity.

The Polar Winter Festival is open from November 25th to December 26th, and tickets can be purchased on the website.
