The festival
Every February, Whitehorse hunts the cabin fever with the Yukon Sourdough Rendezvous: born of the post-war winter carnivals and officially launched in 1962, the festival celebrates the Yukon's border spirit with axe, chainsaw throw, fuzzy packaging and leaven pancakes, among coronations, Can-Can and the Sourdough Sam contest. Its 2026 edition, its 62nd anniversary, stretched from February 6 to 22.
You are at a festival, a concert, a village party, a traditional party, a private party — even two or three, on a boat or on a plane? Send us your images: Festival TV analyses them, and if they are broadcast, they pass on with your name in credit. Program in preparation. All the parties of the world interest us: we want to see how different communities celebrate life and manifest their joy.
