A winter wonderland awaits your arrival as the Fur Rondy prepares to warm you up!

The Anchorage Fur Rendezvous, fondly known as "Fur Rondy," has been delighting visitors since 1935. This winter festival was beautifully timed to welcome back miners and trappers returning to Anchorage for fur trading. Founded by Vern Johnson, it aimed to bring joy and warmth to the community during winter. Early festivities included sports competitions, parades, and fur auctions.

In 1951, the festival became an official city celebration, and events like the World Championship Sled Dog Races, launched in 1946, gained fame. Over the years, unique traditions such as the Fur Rondy Carnival and the whimsical "Running of the Reindeer" have kept the festival lively.

Today, Fur Rondy blends Alaskan heritage with modern festivities, showing the state’s culture, arts, and adventurous spirit. It continues to draw thousands of visitors annually and celebrates Alaska's rugged lifestyle and community spirit.

The Fur Rendezvous festival will run from February 20 to March 2. Join us in gorgeously snowed Alaska!

What to Expect When Attending Anchorage Fur Rendezvous 2025

Many interesting events await you in downtown Anchorage.

World Championship Sled Dog Races is one of the festival’s oldest and most prestigious events. These multi-day races feature top mushers navigating challenging trails in the heart of Anchorage.

Running of the Reindeer is a playful and crowd-favorite event. Participants dash through downtown streets alongside reindeer in a lighthearted nod to Spain’s Running of the Bulls.

The Blanket Toss is a nod to Alaska Native traditions. This thrilling event involves participants being launched into the air using a large, taut blanket initially used for hunting.

At the Outhouse Races, teams will race elaborately decorated outhouses on skis. The Frostbite Footrace is one of the most lighthearted events. This annual tradition invites participants of all ages and fitness levels to dress in fun, creative costumes and run through downtown Anchorage in the chilly Alaskan winter air.

The Fur Auction also pays homage to the festival’s origins and highlights the fur trade's historical importance in Alaska.

The Rondy Carnival will offer rides, games, and classic fair food. Visitors can also expect to see snow sculptures. Artists will transform blocks of snow into stunning sculptures, showing their creativity and skill in this cold-weather art competition.

February brings chilly winter vibes to Anchorage, creating the perfect backdrop for exciting winter festivities. During the day, temperatures usually hover around -3 C (26 F), and at night, they can dip to -12 C (11 F). Don’t forget to bundle up; think about wearing layers to stay cozy while enjoying your outdoor adventures!

The festival offers a mix of free and ticketed events. Many activities, such as the Frostbite Footrace, Running of the Reindeer, parades, and snow sculptures, are open to the public without charge. However, some key attractions, such as the World Championship Sled Dog Races and the Rondy Carnival rides, require tickets or passes. Check out the event details and see the prices.

Although specific security details aren't fully disclosed beforehand, attendees can expect typical public event measures like clear bag policies, controlled access points, and staff or volunteer presence throughout.

Here are some key ways to reach the event:

If you're already in Alaska or driving from nearby areas, Anchorage is reachable via the Alaska Highway (from the continental U.S.) or other regional routes. Car rental services are widely available, and parking is provided at many event venues.

Anchorage's bus system is an efficient option for those who want to avoid driving. The People Mover buses operate throughout the city, providing access to downtown and surrounding areas where the Fur Rondy events occur. Check out the schedules here.

Though more of an adventure, the Alaska Railroad operates routes that connect Anchorage to several points within Alaska.

The bag policy requires attendees to bring small bags for ease of movement, especially when attending busy outdoor events or parades. Large bags and backpacks are discouraged.

At Bounce, we’re here to help you store your luggage so you can fully enjoy the festival, especially since there isn’t a storage option available at the venues!
