Quebec Winter Carnival

The Quebec Winter Carnival takes place in Canada every year during the months of
January and February. This traditional celebration lasts for 17 days and attracts lots of
locals and tourists.
Preparations for the festival begin when the people build an amazing Ice Palace for
the festival’s mascot, Bonhomme. He is a cheerful snowman with a red hat and a
traditional belt. The opening and closing ceremonies of the festivities take place at the
Ice Palace.
During the festival, there are exciting events and activities, which include snow
sculpture making, canoe races along the St Lawrence River, dogsled races, fireworks
and, of course, carnival parades with brightly decorated floats and night-time parties.
The Quebec Winter Carnival is the world’s largest winter festival. Despite the sub-zero
temperatures it promises everyone unforgettable moments.
