Annual Maple Sugar Festival du Sucre d'Erable

Celebrate French-Canadian culture at the Nanaimo Maple Sugar Festival this February! Over three days, enjoy live music, from traditional to rock and reggae, delicious food from the Francophone world, a lively market, and the sweet tradition of maple sugar on ice. In 2025, we’re expanding our activity room for even more fun for the whole family. Best of all, we’re committed to keeping the festival budget-friendly, so everyone can gather, dance, and have a great time together. Don’t miss out – we can’t wait to see you there!
