The Legend of  Ullr: Whitefish Winter Carnival 2020

Once upon a time, there lived a god named Ullr who reigned over winter activities in the Nordic regions. Aiding him were his Prime Minister and Queen, who were skilled in creating the beauties of winter.

As time went by, however, his subjects become engrossed in exploring the world and its oceans, and they paid less homage to their god-king and the festivities of their winter season, so Ullr became a god all-but-forgotten, except in dim tradition.

Merry Maker: January 11 A bawdy adults-only good time, enjoy a hearty roast of Whitefish and current events.

King & Queen Coronation: January 18 A fun, family event! Come in out of the cold and be a part of history with the unveiling of King Ullr LX and his Queen of the Snows.

Disco Party: January 18 Dust off your moves and your duds for an evening of groove. Prizes for best costume.

Prince & Princess Coronation: January 25 An annual tradition, watch the new Prince Frey and Princess Freya crowned at half-time, and cheer on the Bulldogs!

Skijoring: January 26-27 This sport combines a mix of two of Montana’s favorites – horses and skiing.

Some events require a carnival button for entry. For more details on all the above Carnival events, browse to: https://whitefishwintercarnival.com/events/
