The Silv er Skate Festival is the longest running winter festival in Edmonton, running this year from February 13- 22nd. The Silver Skate Festival offers something for everyone: a winter triathlon, long blade skate races, snow sculptures, musical performances and fire sculptures.

We will meet in the Hawrelak Park pavilion near the concession at 3:00 pm.

We will check out the awesome snow sculptures, and tour around the festival.
