In February of 2026, more than 1,500 athletes, coaches and officials will gather in the neighbouring northwestern communities of Meadow Lake and Flying Dust First Nation to share in the thrill of competition and camaraderie on the provincial stage. Upwards of 1,000 community volunteers will be recruited to help welcome thousands of visitors to the area during the seven days of Games competition.
The Saskatchewan Games Council looks forward to joining in this historic partnership with Flying Dust First Nation, the City of Meadow Lake, and the 2026 Saskatchewan Winter Games Host Society to stage an unforgettable celebration of sport, volunteerism, and community.
