SHIPSHEWANA —
On Saturday, 100 retailers and more than 2,000 guests will participate in the annual Pajama Sale in downtown Shipshewana. Shops open early, and for anyone who shops in pajamas, discounts run deep. Some stores, for the first time in the history of the festivities, are providing discounts Friday evening.
With the event having garnered attention in last year’s winter edition of Midwest Living Magazine, the Pajama Sale attracts people from all over the area, with some visitors driving from three and four hours away, according to Joanna King, one of the founders of the event.
“This year we’re especially excited,” said King. “The pajama sale is on Saturday and the Super Bowl is on Sunday. Great things are happening in Indiana!”
As part of the celebration, LaGrange County Convention and Visitors Bureau is offering a Girlfriend Getaway package for four that features dinner, theater tickets and an overnight stay.
The public can register for the giveaway by stopping at the CVB’s new location at 350 S. Van Buren (Ind. 5), Suite H south of Yoder’s Shopping Center. Registrants should stop in between 6 a.m. and noon during the Pajama Sale event.
Also on the morning of the Pajama Sale, the CVB will offer hot drinks, bottled water and muffins.
