Maple Ridge, B.C., Sept. 4, 2025 – The City of Maple Ridge is inviting residents and visitors to join the celebration this Saturday, Sept. 6, as Memorial Peace Park transforms into the region’s biggest street festival, Our Neck of the Woods.
Running rain or shine from 2 to 10:30 p.m., the free festival features live music from award-winning artists, family-friendly attractions, food trucks, markets and more.
Guests can soar above McIntosh Avenue on a zipline, explore family activities, discover local vendors, and enjoy spacious licensed areas—all while taking in seven live performances across two stages. Headliners include Juno Award-winning Sam Roberts Band, Juno-nominated Hey Ocean, country star Jojo Mason, and local favourite Danielle Ryan, who began her music career in Maple Ridge.
“Our Neck of the Woods captures the dynamic spirit of our city with experiences for everyone,” said Mayor Dan Ruimy. “As one of the region’s premier new events, we’re proud to share Maple Ridge’s bold energy and strong sense of community with both residents and visitors.”
