Once again, it was Christmas in July and the village welcomed close to 10,000 visitors. The Yuletide theme, in keeping with the town's name, decorated everything like it was December. Christmas trees sprung up, giant candy canes adorned lampposts, lights were twinkling in the trees, and Mr and Mrs Claus showed up with a custom made air-conditioned suit and a sleigh on wheels with goodies for the kids. Fiddler's from all over Canada descended on Noëlville to show off their talents and compete. Even more people came just to enjoy the music, the arts and craft show and the giant flea market.
