At 12pm when the festival started, Weatherzone was reporting temperatures of 6.6 degrees celsius in Bathurst.
However, it also said the temperature would have felt like 1.7 degrees.
There was also a little bit of a drizzle and cold winds, but that didn’t stop everyone from coming out to enjoy the attractions.
People still headed out onto the ice rink for their skating sessions, while some were brave enough to venture up into the sky on the ferris wheel.
Edible Alley also opened at 12pm, offering people food and drinks to keep them warm.
