A celebration of 65 years is sending Vernon Winter Carnival Back to the '80s.

The new theme of the Feb. 7 to 16, 2025 annual event takes a tag line from one of the many iconic movies of the 1980s.

And with it comes a familiar face directing the fun and looking forward to seeing the full scope of the '80s come to life through events, and participants alike.
