Lakeland Snowfest 2022

There is SNOW in the forecast for downtown Lakeland! The City of Lakeland invites the community to a walk in the snow at the 42nd Annual Snowfest on December 3rd from 5 to 9 pm at Lake Mirror in downtown Lakeland.

Take a stroll in the “snow” along the Frances Langford Promenade and enjoy all kinds of Holiday cheer. Santa and Mrs. Claus will be in the snow globe for magical photos, and don’t forget the elves! Home Depot has once again teamed up with our Parks & Rec elves to provide some take-home toy kits (while supplies last). Grab some hot cocoa while you check out the artisan market and enjoy the festive lights of Lake Mirror.

Santa’s helpers from the Junior League of Greater Lakeland will be on hand to share the joy of reading with books for good (and goodish) boys and girls. No coal at this holiday tradition.

The City of Lakeland is proud of its long-time campaign, collecting much-needed canned food donations for Senior Orphans of Polk County at Snowfest. Attendees are encouraged to bring a canned food donation to the event. We will have drop-off locations at tents throughout the Snowfest. Even if you don’t bring your donation that night, keep the Senior Orphans organization in mind as we head into this giving time of the year.

Contact the City of Lakeland for vendor opportunities.
