Join us this BC Day long weekend at Huble Homestead, when we celebrate Homestead Days, our oldest running event! We invite you to step back in time to have fun the old-fashioned way by coming out to enjoy heritage demonstrations such as ice cream and butter making, take part in games and races for different age groups, and cheer on the brave souls willing to participate in the eating contests!

This weekend is all about doing things the old-fashioned way, so everyone can join in the races and relays, which will have different categories for adults and children! For those who prefer to work at a different pace, a self-guided activity will be available. Old-fashioned games will also be taking place in the morning and late afternoon of both days. 

Bring a lunch, or bid on the homemade lunches in the Box Lunch Social – don’t worry, the BBQ will also be running if you get outbid! Enjoy live music, crafts, and outdoor lawn games, as well as our exhibit on the Huble Diaries. 

After nearly a 3-year hiatus due to Covid-19 the Cariboo Rocks the North team is pretty excited to welcome back our Classic Rock Fans to Exhibition Park this summer! It’s going to be one heck of a party!

August 5th – 7th, 2022

Hosted in Exhibition Park – located between Kin 1 and the CN Centre

We’re excited to announce the return of Homicide on the Homestead! Book your spot and travel to 1960s Prince George to to take on a character from the past and investigate a murder!

Participants in this event will receive an official invitation, character assignment, and costume ideas for an event that will transport them back in time. On the event day, the players arrive in period costume, receive their objectives for the game, and mingle as they work to catch the criminal! Costumes are strongly recommended!

Prizes are awarded for best costume, best performance, and the most money. If you correctly identify the killer you won’t leave empty handed – the same rule applies if the murderer gets away with it! No acting experience required, just a willingness to embrace your role! Registration opens July 25.

This event contains mature themes – registration is restricted to guests aged 17+. Stay tuned for more details!

The last two and a half years have reminded us in many ways how incredible it is to share live music. Once again we will hold both in-person and live-stream events this year for our 2022 festival. The festival this year has been thoughtfully curated to offer a wide array of concert experiences, and I think that many audience members will delight in attending them all!

This year’s festival will be held in Smithers from August 10-13, followed by a satellite concert in Prince George on August 14. We will precede this with a live-stream series starting August 5th featuring the musicians of the Orchestra North Residency Program. These wonderful professional musicians will also be the core performing ensemble of this year’s festival.
