The festival that has been going strong for 80 years!

Fur Rendezvous, or locally known as Fur Rondy, started in 1935 for the return of miners and trappers after a long winter’s work.

Sports, tradition, and art is a big part of this festival.

There will be over 100 activities and events this year! Such as:

• World Championship Hockey
