The Prince Rupert Summer Carnival is back, and with it comes the smell of popcorn, mini doughnuts, and the sound of buzzers and bells.

Shooting Stars Amusement is bringing its carnival to Prince Rupert after it stops in Abbotsford and Smithers- taking up residence in the Jim Ciccone Civic Centre parking lot.

Many different attractions will be offered, such as a Ferris wheel, a bounce house, and many other rides, games and food.

Shooting Stars will be in Prince Rupert for three days from Aug. 26 to 28 before moving on to Terrace on Aug. 30.

Tickets can be purchased online at shootingstar.ca for $45.
