Snowking Accepting Applications for 29th Annual Festival

Yellowknife’s famous Snowking Winter Festival is now accepting applications for performers for next year’s event.

Every year, talented and dedicated snow carvers put together an incredible castle made out of the very ice and snow that falls upon the city every year. Along with the novelty of the castle itself, the site also acts as a stage for many different performances throughout the month of March.

The 2023 festival saw such events as a snow carving symposium, music balls and other musical performances, play events for young children, as well as special performances for adults only.

Snowking is once again putting out a call for Yellowknife’s most talented to apply for the 2024 festival as a performer at next year’s castle. Snowking 29 will run from March 2nd to the 29th, and applications for performers will be open until midnight on November 10th.
