The BC Seafood Festival has proudly been held in the Comox Valley since 2006.

The Comox Valley, Vancouver Island, proudly produces 50%+ of all of British Columbia’s shellfish and the most oysters in Canada, and also is the location of the BC Seafood Festival, celebrating its 17th anniversary this June 2025.
