While the weather has taken a sudden turn for the worse this week with a return of winter temperatures, many days in late November and through December pushed into the mid-60s and even 70 on some occasions, creating near-perfect conditions for Winterfest, the resort’s signature special event during the holidays. As a result, the crowds came in droves, making the 2015 Winterfest of Lights a record-breaker, shattering most of the figures from 2014, which set a new standard last year.
Last year around 111,000 local residents and visitors came through the gates at Northside Park. This year, however, 126,924 enjoyed the Winterfest tram and all it has to offer, Special Events Director Frank Miller told the Mayor and Council on Monday.

My family and I have gone every year since I can remember. It is a tradition. Once a family of 5 has become family of 12 plus that goes.
Afterwards, we always go out to eat in Ocean City.... Fun night!
