Lytton River Festival
Saturday and Sunday, August 30 and 31
Celebrate two full days of family fun at the Lytton River Festival. Visit the Lytton River Festival's Facebook page for the festival schedule.
At the heart of Lytton River Festival 2025 is a powerful tradition: coming together to honour the Thompson and Fraser Rivers, and the people who call our wonderful area home.
This Labour Day weekend, we gather not just for music, food, and fun — but to celebrate resilience, culture, and community.
