Puvirnituq Snow Festival
The Puvirnituq Snow Festival is a biennial winter celebration of Inuit traditions, held every two years in Nunavik. Discover Puvirnituq, the host community, before planning your visit.
Plan your visit with the 2027 festival programme, check admission information, and review transport options to Puvirnituq.
Information about outdoor and traditional activities, as well as artist applications, will be shared here by the festival committee.
Every two years, The Inuit come to Puvirnituq for approximately a week for the Snow Festival. On this occasion, different, exciting activities are put on, from outdoor activities, snow and ice sculptures contests to traditional games and competitions.
The 36th anniversary will take place in March 2027. The festival committee began fundraising in June 1990 and held the first festival in March 1991.
Our next festival will be held from March 22 to 27, 2027.
Meaning Dog Sled or Dog Team. A dog sled or dog Team is a sled pulled by one or more sled dogs used to travel over ice and through snow. Decided/Dated By Our Uvillukuit September 2025.
In 2007, a five-metre-high polar bear made of snow marked the festivities. In 2005, participants worked on a massive structure together: a giant igloo, 40 metres around and five metres high. More than 400 people entered it simultaneously. Every evening, music, dance and artistic performances are found at the community centre.
