Admission

Admission to Northwestival is by donation.

While peanut butter has been a staple and favourite item for admission in years prior, we have had to make a shift due to COVID-19. This year admission is by donation to support I Can for Kids a local charity that helps feed children and youth impacted by hunger all year long. Donations allow I Can for Kids to support their grocery gift card program.

Our friends at Save-On-Foods will generously match donations, so together lets show our support for this mighty little organization.

Learn more about the impact of the program.
