SnowDay is a free celebration of all things winter that takes place annually on Family Day at Marina Park.

We are pleased to announce that SnowDay has been named one of Festivals and Events Ontario's Top 100 Festivals!

SnowDay is centered around outstanding professional snow sculptures and features activities and entertainment for all ages. There are opportunities to participate in uncommon winter sports, learn snow carving, play modern and traditional winter games and go skating.

Last year's activities included:

• Feather investigations with Science North
• Winter games with Children & Youth
• Snowshoeing with Chaltrek
• Public snow carving with Willow Springs Creative Centre
• Face painting with Our Kids Count
• Kicksledding
• Skating Party with LU Radio
• Ice Fishing with the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters
• Sensory Mindfulness Scavenger Hunt and other fun activities with Roots & Branches Forest School
• And so much more!

Birds of the Bay community engagement art installations and the Waterfront Yarn Bomb organized by Camp Happy Heart Fibre Arts were also showcased.

Warming activities and demonstrations took place inside the Baggage Building Arts Centre and Mariner's Hall. Spectator opportunities throughout the event included music performances, buskers and demonstrations by community groups.

There was also great local food and drink like bannock and hot chocolate - and the ability to taste and cast your vote for Best Chili at the Chili Cook-Off, a fundraiser in support of The Regional Food Distribution Association that showcases some of Thunder Bay's premier restaurants and chefs.
