Winterruption 2019 – Saskatoon

Late January in Saskatchewan can be a long, cold, dark time. But if the rumours are true – Saskatoon is filled with hearty people who actually still live and thrive in winter. We go to school and work, host events and parties, play sports and yes, go outside once in awhile.

WINTERRUPTION is an effort to give you a great reason to leave your house in the dead of winter. It is a collection of live indoor events, in 8 great Saskatoon venues. There is a lot of music, but also comedy, podcast, spoken word, a unique film event and more.

This is the 4th annual “WINTERRUPTION” and we look forward to seeing you indoor and outdoor, January 23-26!
