May Day at Fort Langley National Historic Site: Monday, May 19!

Join us for the 103rd annual May Day parade as it returns to the charming village of Fort Langley this Monday, May 19! After the parade, head over to Fort Langley National Historic Site for a delightful food-themed celebration.

Explore how early settlers and local First Nations thrived off the land—through trade, agriculture, and ingenuity. Learn how they exchanged cranberries and salmon, cultivated extensive farms, and made the most of nature’s bounty.

Our friendly, costumed interpreters will be on site to greet you and share traditions and stories from the past.
