Fall has just set in, but people are already thinking about the most wonderful time of the year, and who can blame them? The PNE Winter Fair is coming back for the 2024 season, and eager holiday lovers can already buy tickets.

The PNE puts on the magical fair every year, and this year there are two new rides to top it off.

The winter fair is happening December 6-8 and 12-23 from 4 p.m. to 10. p.m. and fan-favourite attractions like the Ice Bumper Cars are back, thanks to popular demand. You can challenge your friends on the ice in the bumper cars, which the PNE website says "glide seamlessly across the slippery surface, spin twirl, and safely bump into other cards."

You can wander beneath twinkling lights at the fair with a hot chocolate in hand, ride the adorable and festive Holiday Express, or go for a skate.

This year there's also a Ferris Wheel you can take a ride on, and the 'Berry Go Round'.

The PNE Winter Fair makes for the perfect date night if you want to get into the Christmassy mood.

The list of food vendors for this year has yet to be announced, but you can count on some sweet treats. There's also the holiday market at the fair, with local vendors selling a bunch of different products so you can get some holiday shopping in.

General tickets start at $20 if you buy them online, and you can book them now if you want to get ahead of your holiday planning.
