A Proper Winter Sendoff

Sink or Skim

Cap off our spectacular Carnival Weekend with the ultimate spring skiing tradition. Watch daredevils attempt to skim across icy waters, or face a frigid splash — with DJ Sam Hauxwell on the decks.

Stick around for The After Splash with a DJ Gondola Booth in the Back Forty.

Carnival Weekend

It's Tradition

Ready for Michigan's wildest winter send-off? Enjoy slope-side DJ sets, live music, a costume contest with prizes, a pool party, and après festivities at the Snowflake Lounge.

Wet or dry, the party keeps going.

After the pool claims its victims, head to the Back Forty for The After Splash — a DJ set straight from the Gondola Booth to close out Carnival Weekend the right way.
