When the weather doesn't co-operate, head indoors!

Very occasionally, Fernie experiences an extreme weather event when you might prefer to be indoors, or sometimes you might just prefer an indoor day, but that doesn't mean you can't still have a great time!

Check out our Events Calendar, packed with live entertainment, workshops, and more, or download our handy up-to-date PDF Version of events, programs and specials for the next two weeks. 

Visit our Things To Do Section for suggested activities.

Check out Local Food & Beverage Specials to get the most out of your dining and imbibing experiences. See production in action at Fernie Distillers, Fernie Brewing Company, Beanpod Chocolate, Coffee & Gelato, Happy Cow Ice Cream, and Rooftop Coffee Roasters.
