Powwow

 

 

Everyone is welcome to attend the Humboldt Partnership Powwow — a vibrant competition powwow celebrating culture, community, and tradition.

 

The event begins with a Grand Entry at 12 p.m., where drum groups, singers, and dancers come together to open the day in a powerful and meaningful way. Throughout the day, enjoy a variety of traditional powwow dances and competitions in many categories. This year’s theme, “Honouring the Land & Our Relations,” reflects a deep respect for culture, connection, and community. The powwow is a wonderful opportunity to learn, celebrate, and take part in National Indigenous Peoples Day.

 

Guests can also explore a selection of food and craft vendors offering delicious eats and unique handmade goods. Admission is free, and all are encouraged to come experience this special day.

 

The event presented in partnership with George Gordon First Nation, George Gordon Developments Ltd., the City of Humboldt, Carlton Trail College, and Horizon School Division.
