Adirondack Winter Carnivals Kick-Off February’s Line-Up of Festivals
I know it kills everyone to look for things to do every weekend. It looks like every corner of the Adirondacks is having some sort of “event” next month. Strange how the suffix “-stock” never made the list.
Given so many to choose from, I thought a map would help. Plus, I threw in a couple bonus Carnifests and a planning chart.
(Large Map)
1. Colton Winterfest 2. Cancelled – Rotary Winter Carnival 3. Lake George Winter Carnival 4. Massena Winter Carnival 5. Canton Winterfest
6. McCauley Mt Winter Carnival 7. Saranac Lake Winter Carnival
8. Ogdensburg River Shiver 9. Empire State Winter Games
10. Indian Lake Winterfest 11. Raquette Lake Winter Carnival
12. Hague Winter Weekend 13. Long Lake Winter Wacky Week
14. Inlet Frozen Fire & Ice
The intrepid Carnifest fans could enjoy for 18 days in a row!!
If anyone has better links for these, I’ll take them.
Boy, would I like to run into a few actual carnys right now. My only real contact was during my Coney Island period. Fascinating people. Anyhow, that would liven up the winter right about now! On the up side, they started building the Ice Palace in Saranac Lake today.
I think it’s too cold for real Carnies up here.
Although it’s a pale shadow of its former glory, the Malone Winter Carnival has been revived the past few years in the form of two events: the Winter Carnival Revue (“Snowbound” Thur 1/28 + Fri 1/29) and the Ball (“Snow Ball” Saturday Febuary 6th).
Thanks for the tip Anne.
Looks like the place to go for info is the Malone YMCA.
WinterFest coming to Ticonderoga – Saturday, Feb. 6, in Ticonderoga’s Bicentennial Park 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Just noticed you had Massena on the 6th, when it’s actually Feb 4-7. I’ve linked my post on the event too.

Thanks NY Land Man. Good catch, I’ll have to update my chart when I get home.
Some talk of real estate values and Adirondack Park happening over at the the In Box which you might be interested in.
