Bayfront Festival Park will be a great place to be in Duluth on Wednesday, December 26th at the annual "Warmer by the Lake" celebration brought to you by City of Duluth Parks and Recreation.

“Warmer by the Lake” will mark the last day to enjoy the Bentleyville Tour of Lights, so pack up the kids, grab your skates and head on down to Bayfront for a fun-filled afternoon of winter activities and a spectacular fireworks display closing Bentleyville 2012.

There will be ice skating, marshmallow roasting, and live entertainment. Everyone will enjoy free hot chocolate and cookies as you warm up by the large bonfire. Admission and parking are free.
