Canada Day in the Township of Langley
In 2024 there were free activities from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm at McLeod Athletic Park. There was also an event at Willoughby Community Park from 8:00 pm to 10:30 pm. Last year there were also Canada Day festivities at Aldergrove Athletic Park. This year in Aldergrove, there was likely a smaller event at the Royal Canadian Legion at 26607 Fraser Highway between 11:00 am and 3:00 pm. Exact details about that event, however, were to be confirmed.
In addition to the above July 1st festivities at various locations in the Township of Langley, other Canada Day celebrations take place in Fort Langley. Another major event happens there later in the month too. The Fort Langley Jazz & Arts Festival took place from July 25th to 28th in 2024. If you like Jazz, you’ll want to attend this event next year! It includes both ticketed and free concerts.
