Are you on team Bring Back Winterfest with me? 😂
Fun Fact: Winterfest started in 2016 and wasn’t even focused on winter.
2017 was a wintery mix, then 2018-2020 was SNOWY AF! ❄😍
In 2021 they changed the name to New Year New Movies, but thankfully they kept the focus on winter. Then came 2022 where only 1 movie (out of 5!) was snowy, and it didn’t even air until the end of the month. 😭

Winter in Vail is a fan favorite, and even though they’re not wintery, two of my favorites are from 2016 – Love in Paradise, and Love on the Sidelines. Have you seen those?
Do you have a favorite Winterfest movie?
