Winter Carnival 2021
ELLICOTTVILLE, NY – You are invited to celebrate the ski season with the annual Winter Carnival in the Village of Ellicottville and at Holiday Valley Resort.
With the current COVID restrictions, Ellicottville’s legendary Mardi Gras Weekend has been reinvented as Winter Carnival Weekend. Storefronts will be decorated, themed music playing in the streets, and there will be lots of activities at Holiday Valley including a fireworks display at 10:30pm on Saturday, March 13th.

To add to the fun, check out the giant snow sculpture of an 8-foot-high ski boot right in the Village, carved by famed sculptor Eric Jones! (You may have seen his carvings of Buffalo Bills’ own Stephon Diggs and Josh Allen. His work is outstanding!) So why not venture out and get your picture with the boot?! You’ll find it proudly displayed on the lawn of the 1887 Building. While you’re here, walk across the street and visit the world’s largest Ski Tree; you will be amazed at the number of skis it took to make this fantastic monument to Ellicottville’s famed winter sports activities!
Whether it is experiencing our nightlife, having a great dinner, or just enjoying the outdoors, Ellicottville is the place to be, March 13th and 14th. Make your weekend memorable - book a room and make it a mini-vacation!
