Experience the magic of Flying Canoë Volant as it arrives in Banff for the first time in 2026. Inspired by the legend of The Flying Canoe and shaped by French Canadian, First Nations, and Métis traditions, this enchanting winter festival transforms Central Park into a glowing landscape of light, story, music, and movement. Wander illuminated pathways, discover interactive artworks, and feel the spirit of winter come alive through creative expression.
Gather inside Tipis and a Trapper’s tent for rich Indigenous and Francophone-Métis cultural programming, from storytelling and song to hands‑on engagement. A 360° projection dome adds an immersive visual experience that brings the legend to life in a whole new way. Join us for a luminous celebration of culture, community, and winter wonder.
