Edmontonians are giving this year's Silver Skate Festival the cold shoulder but it's hard to blame them given the weather. The weather has had a big impact on attendance, executive director Erin Di Loreto told CBC News on Tuesday. Organizers of the Silver Skate Festival worry about attendance after a slow start to the 2019 version. Cold weather means fewer people at this year's Silver Skate Festival at Hawrelak Park. Other festivals and outdoor events in Edmonton and the area have also been battered by this winter's weather.
