Known far and wide as one of the world's great parties, this annual bash in the mid-winter cold attracts thousands from around the world. Bonhomme the Snowman presides over 17 days of ice sculptures, dog sledding, boat races on the semi-frozen St Lawrence River, parades, and all manner of less wholesome carousing. Revellers roam the city drinking caribou; a potent blend of red wine and grain alcohol from Bonhomme-shaped canes. The Ice Palace, just across from the Parliament Buildings, is the festival's headquarters.
