Comox Valley

Why it's worth going

This is a flexible Comox afternoon instead of a one-note event, which is why it works so well for locals and visitors staying nearby.

What to expect

  • Free to attend
  • Family-friendly
  • Food or drinks available
  • Outdoor event

Good to know

  • Drop in for the noon concert if you are short on time, or keep walking down toward the marina to turn it into a longer afternoon.
  • The concert starts at noon
  • the market runs 11:30 a.m.-5 p.m., and the organizer recommends bringing your own chair.
