Open Until 8pm on Thursdays!

Need more opportunities to shop during the busy holiday season? Downtown Fredericton has you covered!

Join us downtown on Thursday evenings in December when more than 25 stores will stay open during the evening to help you cross more things off your list, from toys and games to clothing, jewelry and décor! Need a break from shopping? Stop at a café or restaurant to relax and re-boot! And don’t forget to take a deep breath and enjoy the ambiance of our beautiful downtown while you’re here.

Bonus: Parking is free after 5pm! No need to worry about your meter running out when you visit downtown in the evening as there is no charge to park on-street, in the York St. Carpark (behind City Hall), in the Tannery lot and in Frederick Square after 5pm. (Exception: the East End Parking Garage requires payment 24/7)

Thursday December 8: The Mayor’s Tree Lighting will take place at 6pm at City Hall, and the Provincial Tree Lighting will take place, starting at 6:30 in front of the Legislative Assembly.

Note: Most stores will be open until 8pm, but please check times listed below as there are a few exceptions
