Anchorage Fur Rendezvous Winter Festival

Anchorage Fur Rendezvous Winter Festival

Since 1935, Fur Rendezvous – known locally as Fur Rondy – has proudly represented the pioneering spirit of Alaskans. In addition to more than 20 official cultural and sporting activities, the Anchorage community hosts nearly 50 Rondy Round Town events, offering wacky winter fun for all ages. Check out the official Fur Ronezvous site here to see all of the activities.

ASC members have been the creative force behind the Fur Rondy Melodrama, one of the most successful events of the Festival held in Anchorage every winter. Each year the Melodrama is played in front of sell-out audiences over three weekend runs, Friday nights, Saturday and Sunday matinees and evening performances.

Each year Chorus members are involved in writing, producing, set building and costume making, as well as starring in the Melodrama. One of the most popular and fun elements of the Melodrama is the popcorn throwing. Audience members young and old delight in throwing popcorn at the cast, the chorus and each other!  From miners to pirates, zombies to Vikings, we've done it all!
