All of this years’ outdoor events for the 2021 Prince Albert Winter Festival have been officially cancelled, but the festival will still be streamed and could feature drive-in events.
The Sled Dog Races, King and Queen Trapper Events, Arm Wrestling, Trade Show, Kidz Zone, the Bonfire, and the Family Day Sliding Party are all scratched from the schedule this year.
“We held off on this decision as long as we could, in the hopes that we could still hold some events,” said Outdoor Events Co-ordinator Tammy McGunigal said in a statement. “However for the ongoing safety of the participants and spectators, the events simply cannot be done this year. We look forward to resuming all these events next year and making the outdoor site bigger and better.”
The festival will still live on in various regards, as the Rock Show Experience, Youth Extravaganza, Voices of the North, Fiddle Show, Country North Show, Reunion Show, and Gospel Show will all be streamed online. There are also plans in the works for a Drive-In Fireworks display and a Drive-Thru Fish Fry, but those have yet to be finalized.
