White Rock Sea Festival & Semiahmoo Days 2024
The annual event has been going on for over 70 years. Sea Fest, as locals call it, attracts thousands to White Rock’s beaches for family fun celebrations and fireworks.
It will feature fun for the whole family, with live entertainment, an outdoor movie night at Semiahmoo Park, the Westcoasters Car Show, an all new Environmental Zone, and a Salmon BBQ.

Along with the festivities, visitors can browse the many vendors at the marketplace along the White Rock Promenade while listening to music from the Memorial Park Stage.
But the biggest attraction of the weekend is definitely the dazzling fireworks display that will light up the sky on Saturday, August 5 at 10:15 p.m.
