Pitt Meadows Day Event

Pitt Meadows Day is a long-running tradition that has been taking place since 1938. Over the last few decades it has grown into the community’s largest event.

The celebration of the city brings people from Pitt Meadows, Maple Ridge and other parts of the Lower Mainland together for a fun day of festivities. It’s an event that Pitt Meadows residents look forward to each year.

2026 marks the 85th annual Pitt Meadows Day event. In previous years the event was organized by the Pitt Meadows Day Society. However, since 2022 the celebrations have been planned by the City of Pitt Meadows instead.

The event takes place on the first Saturday of June which, in 2026, is on June 6th. Activities used to be held in and around Harris Road Park. Since 2024, however, the event has officially moved to Pitt Meadows Athletic Park. The venue’s address is 11431 Bonson Road in Pitt Meadows. As always, Pitt Meadows Day is free to attend.

Activities and What to Expect

Typical Pitt Meadows Day activities are described below. There’s lots of space for activities and parking.

Morning Activities

Pitt Meadows Day begins with the Lion’s Club Pancake Breakfast in the morning. The cost per person is around $8 for adults and $4 for children. The breakfast happens in Pitt Meadows Arena at 11435 Bonson Road.

Free activities begin after breakfast, starting with the parade at noon. Previously, the parade route began at Harris Road near City Hall and ended at Pitt Meadows Athletic Park. Expect to see people gathered on the sidewalks watching parade floats and other entries passing by.

Afternoon and Evening Activities

There’s a Kids Zone with fun activities for children to enjoy in the afternoon. The park is also where the artisan market and field exhibitors are ranged, along with a stage for live entertainment.

Performers this past year included Almost Famous, Trilojay and more. A number of different food trucks are on-site typically serving everything from lemonade and ice cream to pizza and fish and chips. The food trucks are inside the family-friendly beverage garden which is ideal for people looking to grab a bite to eat and a drink and kick back while listening to great music.

Adults entering the beverage garden receive wristbands and can usually purchase alcohol in the evening. Kids and teens can buy a variety of other drinks in the same section of the event too, or at least that was the case in previous years.

In addition to the pancake breakfast, the event also includes a BBQ dinner between 5:00 pm and 7:00 pm. The food costs $20 per person regardless of age.

Pitt Meadows Day concludes with a drone show at 9:30 pm with accompanying music.
