Ring in the Season with Jingles & Joy at Blue Mountain Village

THE BLUE MOUNTAINS, Ontario, Dec. 16, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Come and enjoy turn-of-the-century architecture dressed up for the season. Sleigh bells can be heard in the background as carolers stroll the cobblestone pathways and children visit Santa. Nothing welcomes the holiday season like December at Blue Mountain Village with spectacular fireworks each Saturday night at 8pm, again on Christmas Eve, and twice on New Year's Eve.

Forget fighting for a parking space and shopping inside at the mall. Instead, enjoy the weather strolling outside through the Village, exploring the 50 unique shops and eateries. From locally-owned stores featuring original gift ideas, art, women's fashions and home décor to Christmas décor, toys, ski wear and so much more! You'll be sure to find something for even the most discerning folks on your list. And when it's time to drop the bags and have a bite, there are 25 restaurants and eateries to choose from. Busy kids will love the indoor/outdoor Plunge! Aquatic Centre complete with a water slide and rope swing and just steps away is Ontario's only exhilarating Ridge Runner Mountain Coaster - open daily this school break. If you're in need of a little break from the hustle and bustle visit one of the two Village spas - one is just for kids!

The Village makes a great day trip but staying the night gives you time to really take it all in. There is a complete range of excellent and affordable accommodations as well as fabulous amenities like year-round outdoor pools.

Winter's on the way. Welcome it with Jingles & Joy at Blue Mountain Village.
