A decade has passed since the 2015 Canada Winter Games brought athletes, fans, and a historic moment to the city, and today, Prince George is celebrating the lasting legacy of that unforgettable event.
On this day ten years ago, the Games officially began with a spectacular opening ceremony at CN Centre. Athletes from across the country proudly marched in, cheered on by an enthusiastic crowd, while the Lheidli T’enneh Nation made history as the first-ever official host First Nation.
From the electrifying atmosphere to the lighting of the Games torch, the event set the stage for two weeks of incredible competition and community spirit. The 2015 Games not only showcased top athletic talent but also strengthened local pride and left a lasting impact on sports and recreation in Prince George.
As the city reflects on this milestone, residents are encouraged to share their favorite memories of the Games. What moments stand out most to you?
