49th State - 49th Iceworm Festival!
February 6, 7, & 8, 2009
The first full weekend of every February, Cordova rolls out the royal red carpet and welcomes guests from all over the world to the annual Iceworm Festival.
In 1961, a few Cordovans created the Iceworm Festival as a way to break the winter blues. Since then, it has turned into one of the most successful festivals in Alaska. Three days of fun-filled events showcase Cordova’s talents, hospitality and sense of humor. The Iceworm variety show features local performers and is the stage for the Miss Iceworm coronation. Groups of locals race down the harbor docks, jump into survival gear and dive into the icy harbor waters in the annual Survival Suit Race. The parade is a procession of excitement as the Iceworm makes its yearly appearance. Join us for the fun!
