Alberni Valley farms and creators fuel four days of agri-fair and midway fun!
The Alberni District Fall Fair has been the valley's main fall celebration since 1945—making 2026 the 81st annual fair!
There will be no lack of fun and exciting events to keep parents and children alike entertained during this four-day event in Port Alberni.
The event features midway carnival rides, a community parade, logging demonstrations, food booths, and so many more great events.
There is also an annual raffle at the event! Be sure to grab your raffle tickets early.
Concerts run each Thurs-Sat night, with this year's headliner JoJo Mason. Other artists include Los Borrachos, Nautical Disaster (Tragically Hip tribute) and more. Find the full main stage schedule here.
