Port Rowan Ontario - Bayfest

This year marks an incredible milestone as we celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Bayfest in Port Rowan. For twenty-five years, Bayfest has brought our community together to celebrate summer, local talent, waterfront living, and the spirit that makes our town so special.

What began as a small community gathering has grown into a cherished annual tradition, welcoming families, visitors, businesses, and volunteers who return year after year to share in the fun.

Bayfest has always been more than just a festival. It’s a celebration of community pride, local partnerships, and the natural beauty that surrounds us near Long Point Bay. From live entertainment and local vendors to family activities and fireworks over the waterfront, each year has added new memories while honoring the traditions that started it all.

Reaching 25 years would not have been possible without the dedication of our volunteers, the generosity of our sponsors, the support of local businesses, and the enthusiasm of residents and visitors alike. Your commitment and community spirit have shaped Bayfest into what it is today.

As we celebrate this silver anniversary, we look forward to continuing to build a vibrant future for Bayfest and we have just launched our 2026 sponsorship campaign. We invite you as a local business owner and community supporter to think about contributing to our efforts.

We recognize the importance of our sponsors, and we will work with you if our defined levels do not suit your needs. We appreciate the support of our small community year after year!

If you wish to be a sponsor, please reach out to the committee through email at [email protected].

A committee member will contact you to finalize the sponsorship details with you. If you are looking to just purchase an ad in the brochure, please reach out to Erin Friesen. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact 519-429-1748 or at the email above.

Thank you for your time and your support of Bayfest throughout the years!
