Salmon Arm Winter Fun Fest

Winter is magic, and the outdoor experiences in our city are limitless.
We invite visitors and residents to come and experience Salmon Arm as the city will be transformed into a mosaic of winter fun for the entire family!
Salmon Arm Fair organizers have come up with a plan for the 2nd annual Winter Fun Fest aimed at creating more winter recreation opportunities for residents and visitors alike.
The Salmon Arm Winter Fun Fest is a free family-oriented winter celebration blending sport, recreation, arts and culture, showcasing various outdoor activities in the Shuswap. The annual Salmon Arm Winter Fun Fest, hosted by the Salmon Arm Fair, is February 18 & 19, 2023 from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. includes food trucks from in and around the city, and marketplace vendors selling a wide variety of items, all taking place down at the Salmon Arm Fairgrounds.

For the creative participants we are working on a Photo Contest of photographic images with winter, alpine, and polar themes of any genre and style for all audiences. Design a frozen Sun Catcher and enter the Frozen Sun Catcher contest. Meet the critters at petting zoo Family Farm. Look for snow sculptures and a Fire Sculpture Burn at 7PM both nights. Family games include the cast iron fry pan toss or the frozen rubber boot toss.

We have Kiki the Eco Elf scheduled bring her entertaining dance party music, Christine the magical Face painter, and Maggie creating fabulous Balloon Art. We’ve invited our SAS musical theatre group, the AL Fortune Drumline, our very own Pipes and Drums and so much more. The Light-Up Parade is scheduled Saturday, February 18th starting at 5pm leaving from the Fairgrounds through downtown Salmon Arm..
