The Icewine Festival continues this weekend. Visitors can enjoy icewine from local wineries and icewine-inspired food tastings from local restaurants. Admission is free but wine and food samples are one token each. Glasses sell for $5 and tokens are $6 each. The village will be open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, and is equipped with fire pits to warm yourself and ice sculptures to admire.
