Winter Carnival

38th Annual Winter Carnival
February 4, 5 & 6, 2022


Theme: TBD
All activities take place at the Colchester High School, except for Sunday's Open Skate (at Airport Park Ice Rink).

The annual Colchester Winter Carnival is a winter tradition that brings hundreds of families out to the Colchester High School campus for a weekend packed with activities, food concessions, arts & crafts, and other family fun, both inside and outside.  Each year, a theme is chosen by the Winter Carnival committee, and visitors are encouraged to join in the fun by dressing up to match the theme!  The most popular event of the weekend is the Friday night Colchester's Got Talent show, which puts Colchester's most talented residents on the stage for a night of music, dance, and performance!  Auditions are held in January.  Cash prizes are awarded to the top three performances in each category!
Sound like fun?  Join our Winter Carnival Planning Committee and help us organize a truly stunning event!  Call 802-264-5640, our Committee Chair for more info, or visit our "Volunteer Opportunities" webpage.
