Every February, Canada's Capital Region is host to Winterlude, North America's greatest winter festival. Three fun-filled weekends of excitement and activity await the whole family! From spectacular ice carvings to an amazing playground made of snow, Winterlude is a great way to take in the best of our Canadian winter.

Skate on the world's longest skating rink - right in the heart of Ottawa! Marvel at majestic snow sculptures and at the glittering ice sculptures or take in a magical outdoor performance representing our unique Canadian culture at the all new Snowbowl. Our mascots, the Ice Hog Family, are waiting for you in Canada’s Capital Region, from February 3 to February 19, 2006.

In the meantime, keep visiting our website to learn about next year's event or learn more about Winterlude and the Ice Hog Legend.
