Canada's National Ukrainian Festival

Festival/Event

About

Canada’s National Ukrainian Festival in Dauphin is a vibrant celebration of Ukrainian culture, with a special focus on traditional foods that delight visitors each August long weekend. One of the festival's highlights is the incredible array of authentic Ukrainian dishes, offering a true taste of heritage.

Feast on favourites like perogies, holubchi (cabbage rolls), kielbasa (sausage), borscht (beet soup), and beetniks (beet leaf rolls filled with dough in cream sauce). If you can’t decide, go for a Ukrainian Platter heaped with all of the above and more! 

Eating together is just as important. Share the love by splitting a loaf of fresh-baked bread from an outdoor stone oven, or join in a feast cooked over the fire at the Cossack camp. For those eighteen and over you can also enjoy a libation with friends at one of the festival’s liquor vendors.
