Every spring, the University of Alaska Fairbanks presents the Festival of Native Arts. This well-attended event provides cultural education and sharing through native dance, music, and traditional arts. The festival has been a tradition in Fairbanks since it began in 1973 and continues to uphold the noteworthy tradition of bringing together artists, performers, and groups that celebrate native cultures in various creative and entertaining ways. There are also many local and regional sponsors that contribute time and resources to ensure the success of this endeavor.

With the nearly constant chilly conditions in Fairbanks, skiing is a sport that is enjoyed by a significant segment of the population. One of the more popular skiing destinations that still retains a rather local charm is Moose Mountain. Skiers are taken to the top of the mountain on a ski bus and then get to the bottom by enjoying the quick but enjoyable ride on Moose Mountain's accessible but still challenging slopes. The mountain is also a favorite of snowboarders.
