The 2026 Saskatchewan Winter Games are coming to Flying Dust First Nation and the City of Meadow Lake!

On December 10th, a major milestone was reached with the signing of a historic quad-party agreement that formalizes the partnership between the two host communities, the Saskatchewan Games Council, and the 2026 Saskatchewan Winter Games Host Society. These Games will mark the first-ever time in the program's 52-year history that a First Nation and a City have partnered to host the youth multi-sport event.


The 2026 Saskatchewan Winter Games will be held on Treaty 6 Territory from February 15-21, 2026 and will bring together upwards of 1800 participants, 1000 volunteers, and 5000 spectators from every corner of the province for a weeklong celebration of sport, culture, and community.
