🎙 It’s Alaska - New Episode Featuring Fur Rendezvous Festival Leaders

This week on It’s Alaska, we sit down with Kristin George and Dakotah Fujan, two of the driving forces behind one of Alaska’s most iconic winter traditions - the Fur Rendezvous Festival in Anchorage.

For more than 90 years, Fur Rondy has brought the community together in the heart of winter, celebrating Alaska’s resilience, creativity, and quirky spirit. From coordinating hundreds of volunteers and welcoming international ambassadors to organizing beloved events like sled dog races, snow sculpture competitions, and the legendary Running of the Reindeer, Kristin and Dakotah share what it truly takes to run a festival of this scale.

You’ll hear insider stories from behind the scenes, learn how the festival continues to evolve while honoring tradition, and discover why Fur Rondy remains one of the state’s most anticipated celebrations.

Whether you’re a lifelong Alaskan or someone who dreams of experiencing winter in the Last Frontier, this episode gives you a front-row seat to the magic.
