The 59th annual Ullr Fest, a time where locals and visitors pray for snow and throw a winter celebration in homage to the Norse god, returns to Breckenridge Thursday, Dec. 8, through Saturday, Dec. 10. 

Festivities begin on Breckenridge’s Main Street with the crowning of this year’s Ullr king and queen at 3:30 p.m. at Blue River Plaza. Following the ceremony, more than 1,300 people will line up to help the town win back the unofficial title for the world’s largest shot ski at 4 p.m. The parade will then travel down the road at 4:30 p.m. 

The first-place prize for the parade is $1,000, while second place wins $750, and $500 goes to third place. Floats must be registered by noon on Tuesday, Dec. 6
