The Best Free Winter Activities and Festivals in All 50 States

Winter can vary drastically depending on where you’re situated. Some states are blanketed in snow, while other states barely get a little chilly. This can mean that while some winter activities are popular in certain locations, they’re nonexistent in others.

While this may be the case, it doesn’t mean there’s a shortage of things to do over the winter. But we’re taking it a step further by bringing you the best free winter activities in every state. From outdoor recreational activities to festive winter celebrations across the nation, here’s what’s happening in your state this winter (or any of the states you’re considering visiting) — and it won’t break the bank.
