BVFMS is hosting a small fall festival over 2 days at the Smithers Fairgrounds: September 10th and 11th.

This will be two nights of great, Canadian music. This is not the usual Midsummer Festival; there will only be the main stage running limited hours along with the tweener stage for smaller acts to perform between main stage acts.

The Festival embraces all genres of music and each year hosts an eclectic mix of musicians performing all day and night on one of the four stages.

The Nelson District Arts Council is grateful to continue this tradition which fosters partnerships between local businesses and local artists with their Virtual Artwalk Gallery!

Much of the artwork in this gallery is for sale, contact the artist directly through the contact information provided to inquire. This year 100% of the sales revenue goes directly to the artist.

On from August 24, 2021 - September 30, 2021.
