Events and Festivals

There is always something worth celebrating, whether it be a holiday or a season, we would love you to come and celebrate with us.

From our weekly wine-tastings with our in-house sommelier, to the biggest wine and beer events in the East Kootenays, there are plenty of reasons to come for a visit.

Fire and Ice Festival

This event has proven to be a favourite. It’s in the name – a celebration of fire and ice, not to mention, a celebration done in style.

East Kootenay Wine Festival

The “must-attend event of the year,” Fairmont Hot Spring Resort’s annual East Kootenay Wine Festival is a place where wine enthusiasts gather together to enjoy fine wine and good company.

Pooch Plunge

Every year Fairmont Hot Springs Resort shuts down their pools for annual maintenance, but the day before goes to the dogs! The Pooch Plunge is a community fund-raiser for Global Animal Lovers and ICAN BC.

Wings Over The Rockies

The Wings Over the Rockies Festival May 7-13, 2018 offers a wide array of presentations, field trips, paddles, and workshops celebrating birds and nature.

Holiday Lights & Winter Nights

Join us for Holiday Lights & Winter Nights! Wander around our mountain lodge decorated with twinkling holiday lights and get into the spirit of the winter season. Enjoy the lights, enjoy tons of fun activities for all ages during this festive time, your new winter tradition!

East Kootenay Beer Festival

It doesn’t get much better than this… two of the most appealing words “beer” and “festival” squished together to create one magnificent word – Beerfest!
