Lac La Biche Ice Festival



During the event, the frozen lake comes alive with the roar of engines, laughter, and cheering crowds. The festival showcases a variety of high-octane ice races, including cars, motorcycles, snowmobiles, ATVs, and mega trucks, all tearing across a carefully prepared road course-style track. If you've never experienced an ice rally, it's an energetic mix of skill, speed, and plenty of sideline action. The cars race all weekend, earning points toward the championship.
While the races are the weekend's highlight, the festival offers a whole lot more. There are charity races, a solo ice slalom race, an introduction to snowmobiling, and even an aircraft Fly-In, where airplanes fly high above the lake before landing so that spectators can meet the pilots and tour the planes.
You'll find plenty of family-friendly activities to keep everyone entertained. Think ice sculpting, a kid's carnival, axe throwing, sleigh rides, a Snowball Snowmobile Race, and a vintage Snowmobile Show'n'Shine display. Live music, food trucks, and concessions will serve up everything you might want to eat or drink, including a traditional Cabane á Sucre.
