Winter carnival: planning a comeback in 2023!

Jan 26, 2022

Due to the current provincial situation, Edmundston’s "Carnaval en rafale", which usually takes place in February, has to take a break again this year. The Recreation and Sports Department team is already preparing the 2023 edition, to take place if the situation permits.

In the meantime, you can enjoy the wonderful conditions of our outdoor facilities, while following Public Health guidelines. Here are the opening hours of these facilities, weather and conditions permitting:

• Bill-Turgeon Stadium Ice oval of the Petit-Sault Park: daily 1 to 5 pm & 6 to 9 pm
• De la Raquoise, Boucher-Office & Mgr-Eymard-Desjardins Rinks: Monday to Friday from 6 to 9 pm/Saturday &  Sunday from 1 to 5 pm & 6 to 9 pm
• Hermile-Mercure & Mgr-Eymard-Desjardins walking trails: at all times
• Boisé des Baraques, Fraser-Edmundston Golf Club & Le Prospecteur snowshoe trails: at all times
• Fraser-Edmundston Golf Club cross country ski trails (skate and classic): at all times

If there is a Government of New Brunswick COVID-19 winter plan phase change, additional outdoor activities will be announced. For updates, visit the Sports Pavilion Facebook page as well as the City of Edmundston’s Facebook and Instagram pages.

Have fun this winter!
