The International Snowmobilers Festival
Madawaska, Maine & Edmundston, New Brunswick
The 14th Annual International Snowmobilers
Festival in Madawaska, Maine and Edmundston, New
Brunswick is set for February 5th, 6th, & 7th. The
International Snowmobilers Festival is the result of the
joint efforts of volunteers from Madawaska, Maine &
Edmundston, New Brunswick’s snowmobile clubs,
municipalities and their business communities. The
Festival continues to help promote our winter tourism
infrastructure and showcases snowmobiling as a fun
and safe family activity in the St John Valley.
For the past 13 years the International
Snowmobilers Festival continues to attract snowmobile
enthusiasts from all across the Unites States and the
providences of Canada. With only a nominal fee, their
current State registration or Provincial trail permit
and a valid passport, snowmobilers can experience
Maine and New Brunswick’s top rated trail system
without incurring any additional registration costs.
This unique riding experience is made possible by a
reciprocity agreement between snowmobile clubs in
New Brunswick and the State of Maine.
The Festival’s main attraction continues to be
snowmobiling and its accessibility in connecting Maine
and New Brunswick trail system. However, Festival
participants will experience a program of snowmobiling
activities and social gatherings that are filled with the
Valley’s own unique hospitality. Events such as the free
spaghetti dinner, live music and fireworks on Friday
night in Madawaska, Drag races and music Saturday
night in Edmundston and a free breakfast on Sunday
morning at the KC Hall just to name a few.
