Dakota Nation Winterfest returned with 'positive energy' in Brandon for the first time since 2020. The event celebrates and strengthens Indigenous culture by bringing a powwow and other activities to urban people and youth.

Dancers enter the Dakota Nation Winterfest Grand Entry on Friday, Jan. 27.

"That's what powwow is all about. It's a place of positive energy, a place where different tribes get together and celebrate." Men play the traditional moccasin game at Dakota Nation Winterfest Grand Entry on Saturday, Jan. 28. It's a traditional gambling game where two teams take turns hiding an object under a moccasin or mat. The opposing team tries to guess where the item is hidden.

"That's why we bring them to the city, because some of them don't ever get out on the powwow circuit," McKay said.
