Maine Winter Events February 2025
The month of February really picks up the pace for Maine winter events! There are multiple snowmobile events, including poker runs, a charity ride, and radar runs. There are many WinterFests this month, as well as some fun races, ice fishing derbies, and you can even help harvest ice the old-fashioned way at the Thompson Ice House!
Check back often- I’ll add events as more dates come in! Visit my online Maine Outdoor Events Google Calendar here for more information about each event and a complete list of all events for the year, or click the event’s title to go directly to their website.
