PLAN YOUR VISIT
There’s more than just ribs to enjoy at the Port Moody Rotary RIBFEST! From live entertainment to family friendly activities, your weekend plans just got exciting.
Hours
RIBFEST is open from 11am – 9pm on all three days (Friday, July 19 – Sunday, July 21).
Washrooms
Portable washrooms with hand washing & sanitization stations are available within the Ribfest park.
Cash Machines
ATM cash machines are available onsite. It is recommended to bring cash with you to avoid line-ups.
Beer Garden
Instead of a beer garden we now have a site-wide liquor license that allows you to drink anywhere within the Ribfest park.
If you want to drink please bring your driver’s license or another government issued ID with your photo and birthdate.
Family-Friendly
The whole Ribfest park is family-friendly. The Family Zone is open from 11am – 5pm on all three days. Children must be supervised by a parent or guardian while in the Family Zone.
Dogs and other pets
We love dogs (and not just hotdogs)! But unfortunately no pets are allowed at Ribfest. Service animals are exempt from this rule.
Security and Lost & Found
Security will be checking bags at the two entrances to the Ribfest park and will also have a large presence throughout the event. The Port Moody Police Department will also be onsite throughout the three days.
If you lose an item or find an item, please bring it to the Volunteer’s Tent which is also the Lost & Found.
Safety
Please dress for the weather. There are multiple tents to allow you to get out of the sun, but we still highly recommend bringing hats, sunglasses, jackets and sunscreen.
To ensure a safe event for everyone attending, please leave the following items at home:
- Tents, tarps and wagons
- Weapons or anything that could be considered to be one including knives of any kind
- Frisbees or balls
- Pets with the exception of working service dogs
- Flags, signs or banners
- BBQs
- Musical instruments
- Alcohol
- All smoking and vaping products
