DULUTH, Minn. - Thanks to the warm weather, Bentleyville saw record attendance for its opening weekend.
More than 15,000 people showed up Saturday night which is the most Bentleyville has ever seen in a single night."We didn't know if we were expecting it, but we certainly were prepared for it,” said Bentleyville's creator, Nathan Bentley. “We had great weather and we were prepared."
Bentleyville will be lit up every night through Christmas.
Volunteers with Bentleyville are asking visitors to bring an unwrapped toy and a non-perishable food item for donation.
