Winter Carnival

Begun in 1911, Dartmouth's Winter Carnival celebrates the beauty of the winter season in the Upper Valley and the achievements of Dartmouth's many winter sports teams.

Dartmouth will celebrate our 116th Winter Carnival from February 5-8, 2026 with the theme "The Blizzard of Oz: Wicked Cold." Stay tuned for more details coming in January.
