Not the Powwow's fault at all but the handicapped accessible parking and/or drop-off was very inconvenient. The Pow Wow was a great event to attend. Pls look into the charge for Elders as it should be lower than 12.00

Description of Event

The Blackfoot Canadian Cultural Society hosts its annual contemporary Aboriginal arts festival, including competition dances, the last weekend of February in Lethbridge. The mid-winter event at the spacious Enmax Centre showcases the best that Aboriginal cultures have to offer in music, dance and the visual arts. The event brings together the nations of the Blackfoot Confederacy - Alberta's Piikani, Kainai/Blood, and Siksika and Montana's Blackfeet - as well as Tribes and First Nations from across western North America. The general public is invited to celebrate this winter celebration of peace and goodwill.

 

The pow wow runs from 10 am to midnight both days.
