Ribfest 2024

A weekend of BBQ ribs, local entertainment, craft beer, cider and wine, free kid’s activities, local arts, and vendors.

Outside operating costs, all proceeds raised by the Esquimalt Ribfest are returned to the community through the Esquimalt Firefighters Charitable Foundation and the Esquimalt Ribfest Society. Funds go to local charities and school-sponsored activities for our community’s youth.

Esquimalt Ribfest has six professional rib teams that compete to win the coveted Peoples’ Choice. 

Live music by our best local bands! Enjoy crafts brews, wine, and cider.

Fun for the whole family, take part in free children’s crafts and activities.
