Each year in September, Libby hosts Nordicfest, a community-wide celebration focusing on the area's Scandanavian heritage.

The festival includes a authentic Scandanavian food, dancing, workshops in wood carving, an International Fjord Horse Show, a juried craft show, quilt show, food booths, parade, free bandshell entertainment and much more.

The colorful Nordicfest parade takes place on Saturday morning at 11 am.

Nordicfest was founded in 1985 in Libby and has been an annual tradition ever since. The Nordicfest parade features a number of musical groups, floats and other entries including the Fjord horses.

A highlight of Nordicfest is the annual International Fjord Horse Show, which takes place on Saturday at J. Neils Park. This is one of the most popular events at Nordicfest and is one of the largest Fjord shows in North America. The Fjord Horse Show includes reining competitions, a combined driving event, and demonstrations of freestyle reining and farm equipment hauling. There are riding and jumping events to show the versatility of the breed and the abilities of the riders.

Youngsters enjoy the Stick Horse Class, riding stick horses with Fjord horse-like heads, were judged in the arena on performance. First place through sixth place winners received a ribbon.
