COME TO THE 17th ANNUAL STANLEY WINTERFEST

Stanley is one of the coldest places in the continental United States - so, of course, it hosts one of the best winter festivals around. The Stanley Winterfest is all about snow, thrills, and keeping it weird! The family-friendly event happens every President’s Day weekend.
