Named one of the top 20 festivals in Metro Vancouver by Business in Vancouver, Coquitlam Celebrates Canada Day is a community festival with live music and entertainment, food, beverages, family activities and fireworks.

Recognizing Canada’s 150th anniversary, there will be a special focus on Canadian music this year, including the Soundtrack Canada tribute to Canadian singers and songwriters and a Canadian-themed battle of the bands headlining act featuring Off the Record and The Ticket. Audience members will vote for their favourite, and both bands will lead the singing of O Canada before the fireworks finale.

The kick off is in Town Centre Park at 12 p.m. with a procession that starts at the park’s east entrance on Community Drive. TD Bank Group recently signed on as the corporate partner for the Plaza Stage, which will host a variety of dance and musical performances starting at noon.

Get out your red and white and celebrate with us!
