The SnowDays Festival takes place every January to February in downtown Banff and Lake Louise.

The area is brought to life with stunning ice and snow sculptures.

This year’s festival featured quintessential Canadian events, such as skijoring, sledding and a snow activity area, adding to the other recreational opportunities available in the park.
