Harvest Vibes & Live Music: Barnside Harvest Festival 2025
Get ready, Ladner—Barnside Harvest Festival returns for its third unforgettable year from September 12 to 14, 2025, held at Paterson Park (5800 Clarence Taylor Crescent) in Ladner, BC. With gates opening at 4 pm on Friday, and 12 pm on both Saturday and Sunday, this festival weaves together music, artisan markets, family fun zones, local food and drink, and much more, all set in a vibrant harvest celebration.
The weekend is packed with features that bring the local community to life. Attendees can enjoy live performances across three stages, with headline acts including Walk off the Earth, Arkells, and The Dead South, alongside dozens of talented Canadian artists. The festival also hosts an Artisan Village of over 100 local vendors, a Heritage Pavilion celebrating regional history, and a Family Zone complete with a hay maze, games, and face painting. Food trucks, heritage exhibits, and a fully licensed site-wide bar, offering craft beer, local wine, and non-alcoholic beverages complete the fall festival experience.
Festival logistics are thoughtfully designed for convenience and comfort. On-site parking is available (pre-booked for $20 or $25 at the gate), and free shuttle services run from Tsawwassen and North Delta throughout the weekend. Sunday is also uniquely dog-friendly, offering pup-approved activities like treat stations and a “Best Dressed Dog” contest.
